Are you doing a canter pirouette?!
He's wonderful and you both look great! And I like your hat! :lol:
And I'm jealous about the sun, because here it's dark and cloudy... :(

How lovely!
Am I right when I think he gained more muslces? He looks stronger than in the old pictures (though there he looked alread very well and muscular).
Anyway, once again you placed amazing pictures of you and Nirvana. Thank you for sharing!

I agree, the pictures are great and it truly looks as if he has become more muscles, and less long in the back. In earlier pictures sometimes it seemed like he still struggled with not only flexing his neck but at the same time also collecting the rest of the body, leaving that somewhat longer and less engaged (which is exactly the thing Blacky's still struggling with too). But now his collection really looks whole, coming from his entire body. Well done, and very inspiring! (means that there is still hope for Blacky and me too 8) :lol: )

Every time I see a picture of Nirvana I just sit and stare - I think he is incredibly good-looking. I just adore his colour!

Nirvana is a QH X Rocky Mountain horse breed of 6 and half year old.

Amiro
Yes he gained muscle and better physical condition because i rided him a lot mid july to end of august. I was riding him about 3 time in a week, so he improve a lot his cardio too. I would like a lot to keep him in this shape but winter coming so i don't have any place to ride . So we will pass more time on ground work :)

I just finally wandered down to the pictures thread and found you!

Oh, my god, he is absolutely spectacular.

He's far and away the most beautiful Rocky I've ever seen (and most of them are pretty darn gorgeous.)

WOW!!!!!

All the best,
Leigh

He's a Rocky? I didn't know that -- how cool!

Really, Lasuria, those photos look like they should be in a magazine. :thumright: :thumright:

Patience, patience!
It does help if you reply to the replies themselves too, 8) and of course we're still waiting for the rest of the pictures you promised!
