Tony Stromberg, one of the world's top equine photographers, works to bridge what he calls "modern life's disturbing separation between people and nature." He came to horses and riding later in life — after years as a successful commercial photographer — and horses became his "teachers." These 150 extraordinary portraits, in color, black and white, and sepia tones, showcase horses in motion, many wild and ungroomed. As Linda Kohanov notes, his images "give us a compelling glimpse into the secret life of horses." Accompanying reflections from thinkers from the Dalai Lama to D. H. Lawrence explore the spiritual nature of these powerful creatures. Through the undiminished mystery of the horse, and our perennial fascination with the animal, Stromberg reignites the qualities of freedom, spirit, power, grace, and harmony in people’s souls.
