Horse in the Mist

I don't know what it is about horses and foggy mornings. There is a kind of magic in the air whenever I see them.
This particular morning the magic was strong magic,overpoweringly so. When I saw this scene through the viewfinder something clicked, not only in my camera but in my minds eye.
The real scene was considerably more dull and well, foggy, but my imagination saw a dreamscape instead of a landscape. Working with the image later, at home the illusion began to take shape and this is the result.
This is far and away from my usual workflow which is usually confined to a few clicks of the mouse to bring out the details. This time I was on a totally different path trying to pull out the surreal.
Horses and fog will do that too you, throw in a woodland setting and your in trouble :-)
