Spring in Salt River Wild Horse Country

Last edited Tue Jun 3, 2014, 03:50 PM - Edit history (1)

Today’s photoessay comes from Becky Standridge, a professional photographer whose work focuses on the wild horses living in the Salt River Canyon outside of Phoenix. I met Becky at a book signing and she was kind enough to send a copy of her beautiful 12-month Salt River Wild Horses calendar. You can see more of Becky’s work on Facebook.

Spring is a favorite season, not only for what it symbolizes but also for what it actually brings. Symbolically, it heralds the renewal of life. It breaks the grip of winter, frees the spirit and fills the senses with hope for the coming season. It’s an incentive for fresh starts and new beginnings. Anticipation abounds.

These horses and their offspring enjoy this clean water,the fact that they have ample water, non polluted air and a place they can call home without a new housing project down stream and many of them not horse lovers.
There should be room for all and corporations and individuals should understand what a healthy is and never take it for granted.
