"When dreaming I'm guided to another world
Time and time again
At sunrise I fight to stay asleep
'Cause I don't want to leave the comfort of this place
'Cause there's a hunger, a longing to escape
From the life I live when I'm awake..."

So after I took this image through many different phases, I decided this was the best version. I started it when I was filled with emotion and finished it without quite as much umph...but I am surprisingly very pleased with it!

Yes, I have used this same stock horse in three pictures now. =P (Winter Revival and Vehenmah are the other two) I believe those two are just about my most popular ones so far too! Fancy that. So of course, big thanks to ~Snowyowl88 who provides the fantastic horse stock and =larfsalot who provided the horse's front legs for Winter Revival and this image. :XD:

So, enjoy and interpret this however you like =)

This is SO beautiful!

May I make a suggestion?
I was unsure that the bottom half of the image was a reflection, so maybe.. making that a bit more... reflectioneyy? XD
i don't know, but err amazing! :D

It's gorgeous! :D

I love the colors and the fantasy/dream-like quality to it. And the mane and tail, and the horse, and basically everything else. ^^

Oh, and since I'm a stalker and read other people's comments like that, for what Katie said, since the water is kinda ripple-y, then maybe the reflection could be more ripple-y? Ahh... I dunno. I make no sense. XD
:iconwaffles-on-a-rampage:
Ah. You never cease to amaze me. :D

She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that's best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes:
Thus mellowed to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.

very beautiful work!

Thanks, Pie!
And thanks for the advice, I'm editing it right now actually.
It totally slipped my mind. :XD:

Thanks for the wonderful comments! :D
(Is this SeaLight from MT?!)

It makes perfect sense and you're absolutely right. I didn't even think about that! :XD:
