I love black horses, even though someone told me they’re not really black, but just a very dark brown. Is this true? They are beautiful animals, whatever color, and your photographs are lovely.
Thank you. 🙂
To answer your question, yes there are true black horses. But they are not common. True black’s even have black skin! A lot of horses give the impression they are black but are deep brown. This is probably what you’ve heard about. For example the horse in the picture is not a true black and if you look closely you can just make out the sheen of brown.
This coming weekend is a driving event that I’ll be covering and there is a team of True Blacks entered. Hopefully I can show you a picture in a few days. 🙂
Did you notice that the tail of her coat is moving like the tail of the horse?

Yes, that’s one of things that caught my eye. I love those little things that make a shot magic.:-)
