My parents went to the "Lusitano Festival" in Castell yesterday and met some friends there and since I'm still enjoying my free time I decided to go with them. I don't know anything about Lusitanos or horses in general for that matter but it was really nice just spending the day there, watching the show, talking about the horses with my mother and her friends who at least know ten times more about them than I do and taking some pictures.
One time during the show part they had some problems with the music and while they were trying to sort that out they asked the guy who was next to tell the audience something about his horse and he said:
"Es gibt schöne Pferde und weniger schöne Pferde. Und es gibt mein Pferd."
(In english: "There are beautiful horses and less beautiful horses. And there's my horse.")
I thought that was so true and well said. I'm sure everyone who shares his life with an animal - a cat, dog, horse or whatever - and loves them knows exactly what he meant.
My favourite picture in terms of motive:

My favourite picture in terms of how the picture turned out:

My favourite horse (I guess she wasn't one of the two champions for nothing):

If anyone is interested there are some more pictures in my scrapbook.
