Equine Photography: The Majesty of Horses in Photographs

Up until the 1900s, horses were the primary mode of transportation that humans had been using for centuries, and as such, humans have developed a natural respect for the grace, majesty and helpfulness of horses.  Horses also present a great opportunity for photographers, because they are large enough that they can easily be photographed, but they are also sometimes unpredictable and offer a variety of situations in which to be photographed.

In this post, we’re showcasing the majesty of equine photography by rounding up 30 awesome horse photographs.
