PeggySue,
Let me say that this is REALLY cool. It is a great idea and I think you were gutsy to present it.
I hear what you are saying about the horses being the same size. Having either the carosel or the gelding be larger than the other provides very different images and concepts. I would like to see you provide these, if you have the time (or already did them).
I don't know what to think of the last image you presented. It is not that it is not good - I just don't know what to make of it.
Can you talk a bit about the technique you used to make this?.
James
