Shutterbug Photo of the Day: “Violet’s Horse” by Mary Ann Wamboldt

Today’s Shutterbug Photo of the Day is a magical, storybook image by Mary Ann Wamboldt.

“This photo is of a little girl meeting a horse for the first time,” Wamboldt writes. “I took my daughter to see the animals at the farm behind our house. She brought an apple for the horse. After the horse enjoyed her snack she reached down to be petted. It was a precious moment, this giant animal being so gentle to such a little girl."

See a larger version of the photo in the Shutterbug Photo of the Day gallery here.
