Weekly Photo Challenge: Home

“Home interprets heaven. Home is heaven for beginners.”  C.H. Parkhurst. Home at Infinity Farm. WordPress Photo Challenge is a weekly prompt to share a photo- I enjoy twisting these macro prompts to share our micro life here on the Colorado prairie. My photos are taken with my phone. No psych, definitely not high-tech.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Illumination

Isn’t the word Illumination sometimes used in conjunction with saints?  Maybe this horse with a halo is a patron saint- sent to ferry us above the fray to a better place. She probably isn’t a saint at all, but if it feels that way, that’s good enough. Anna Blake, Infinity Farm. WordPress Photo Challenge is … Read more

Auld Lang Syne from You…

The sun’s out and there isn’t much snow, but nothing’s melting at all. It’s been bitter cold during these days between Christmas and New Year’s and lessons have cancelled all week. I’ve had a little too much time to think. It’s easy to get sentimental this time of year, but I am feeling full-out mushy.  … Read more

What’s Less Fun Than Saddle Shopping?

Nothing. Not a thing. I hate saddle shopping. It makes my head explode. I have a young mare just starting and I’ve tried to inspire an extremely ancient Wintec to survive long enough for her to finish growing. Well, we had a flat. Ever ridden on only one panel? Neither of us liked it much; … Read more

Weekly Photo Challenge: Green

Black and White is Green. This mare is young and inexperienced, with just a few months under saddle. In riding terms, that makes Clara green. In my opinion, a horse is the animal to have.  Eleven-hundred pounds of raw muscle, power, grace, and sweat between your legs – it’s something you just can’t get from … Read more

Weekly Photo Challenge: Renewal

Breath = Renewal. It’s easy to forget how good it feels to lift your nose in the air and take a deep sip of fresh, crisp air. A big inhale is like a line you can cross over and start again fresh. Every moment, every breath, in the saddle or out. Such opportunity! Anna Blake, … Read more

Weekly Photo Challenge: Foreign

Foreign no More. We are a melting pot: Polish, Iberian, Canadian, Irish, Native American- and those are just the horses. Our ancestors came from far lands but we have all come to rest here. Gratefully home. Anna Blake, Infinity Farm. WordPress Photo Challenge is a weekly prompt to share a photo- I enjoy twisting these … Read more
