Horses, light and sky

May 9, 2012 in We hike ..!

There are places that you would go over and over and over again, because beauty never tire

Beauty is what I found days ago in this place.

I  took this photograph on April 21th  l at Empordà Marshes, just 100 meters far from the stud Senillosa ,dating back to the early seventies.

The Senillosa stud history  begins on the beach in the bay of Roses, acquiring ride horses to tourists in our hotel facilities. The tourist season lasts only 3 or 4 months, when it finished, we left the horses in the field,  until spring.When we collected them, the horses and ponies. Thus began my love of horse breeding

In this way, Arcadi Senillosa remembers the origins of what has been the hub around which his life has revolved. With his family permission

 

Entering the farm, is like entering a nearly perfect little world. It seems as if a hand hadbeen drawing a creative landscape: here a tree, a flower there, here a cloud, and horses everywhere.

A luxury for the few?

perhaps, but a luxury that carries on his back a backpack full of work. No business is easy, but it works with some special merchandise. Mares do not ask permission to give birth, foals do not expect to eat, and then by beautiful they are, then you have toknow how to sell and that’s not always easy

… for a few?

Maybe, It can not

This is what you see from one of the two houses that are rented for holidays and weekends.

I do not know how much it costs, but I’m sure the relationship “quality for price” is totally unbalanced in favor of the quality

Here you have a video I made ​​with some of the photos I took that day. At 100 meters from the house.

There remains a second visit with more mares and foals and more clouds and sky  and more impossible reflections,  but that will have to wait to leave the damn crutches.
