Today is Lunar New Year and it is the year of the Fire Horse. I do not have any photos of horses *on* fire (good!), or made *of* fire (which would be cool), so can I interest you in a photo of horses made *with* fire?

Taken over a decade ago, this photo is of a steel sculpture called Grandfather Cuts Loose the Ponies, by artist David Govedare, and it is located at the top of a hill near Vantage, Washington, above the Columbia River. From the interstate, and the parking area at the foot of the hill, it looks like a line of horses running along the top of the ridge. A short hike will bring you up and gives you angles like this from which to admire them.
Gear: Nikon D90, Nikon 24mm f1.4
