Unicorn Val



.
Way back in 2007, I took a photo of a beautiful white horse named Val... I also took a cloud pic in my back yard and merged Val onto a set of steps I took in Ormond Beach. Val the Unicorn was created. This was before Photo Shop and before PicMonkey. I used Microsoft Digital Image 9 then.

 Below is Val's family, all taken in 07





A horse named Riddle, can you guess WHY?

Horses are such beautiful creatures. And for the lif of me, I can't come up with a solution as to why the horse is named Riddle. Has it something to do with his/her birth?

I do love to look at photos of horses. It reminds me of when my daughter and her friend rented a horse and trained the horse to do dressage.

I think the horse is named riddle because of the front markings that look like a question mark on his face.

S. Etole said...

You do come up with such creative images. Beautiful horses; Riddle's question mark is unique.

Ann said...

such pretty horses. I'm guessing that the one is called Riddle because of the markings on the face that look like a question mark.

Ginny Hartzler said...

So you combined all three of your pictures to create this fabulous image!!! I also love the shots of the horses, how you have really captured their running, the one is tilted almost on the ground from running and turning. The sun is shining on them, and from the back, the front, and the side they are a gorgeous sight! Not a single blur!!! It is s riddle to me about Riddle!

Michaele said...

hmmmm...still "questioning" the name.

diane b said...

Beautiful horse shots, Question his markings?

Gail said...

You know those pictures are right up my alley! Fantastic job and beautiful subject.

Yes, I see the question mark.

Dee said...

Riddle is the perfect name for the horse. :) Great photo for having to do it the old fashioned way :)

Horses are just so beautiful to look at - I have rode horse-backed - but now - no way!

Wow, sort of like working with a stone tablet. Good work.

SquirrelQueen said...

Oh my gosh, I love the question mark blaze on Riddle. That is so cool.

Val is a gorgeous horse and makes the perfect unicorn. Great job on merging the photos.

Marie said...
