Featured Image for May 2025

"The Dance"

These are two stallions who have grown up together at "Making Pegasus."  Leonidas is on the left, and Neo is on the right.  They were play sparring when I captured this image.  I replaced some fences with a less distracting background and here we have the featured image for May!

Born March 3, 2021, Neo is 3/4 Andalusian and 1/4 Percheron.  Neo's dam and sire are "Tenacious as the Wolf" (1/2 Andalusian 1/2 Percheron) and by "Ronaldo UP" (California State Champion Andalusian).   Yes, there was a Matrix theme in names that year, but Leonidas (1/2 Warmblood 1/4 Friesian 1/4 Percheron) wasn't one of them.  Leonidas was born May 16th, 2021; later in the foaling season, so he missed the opportunity for the Matrix name club.  His dam was "Ebony" (1/2 Friesian 1/2 Percheron), and his sire was one of the most perfect Dressage stallions in the world "Sandro Hit" ranked #2 in the All-Time Worldwide Sire rankings.  "Sandro Hit," a Hanoverian stallion, is known for his exceptional offspring, including Bundeschampion Poetin who sold for 2.5 million Euro. 

This image was taken on April 3, 2025 at Making Pegasus, in Lockwood, California,
during our Pegasus Equine Photography Workshop.
Join us in May of next year for this workshop!!!

Featured Image for August 2022

This is an impromptu portrait of "Love the Night Sky," one of the "Making Pegasus" stallions owned by Greg Davis.  I can't get enough of this horse.  His coloring and coat patterns are beautiful and his personality is infectious.  He's curious, playful, and gentle.  Look into those eyes and tell me what you feel.

Featured Image for June 2022

Jupiter is one of the “Making Pegasus” stallions, born in 2019.  He is a Clydesdale whose dam was “Bella Donna,” a Sabino Clydesdale.  His sire was “Thorpe Hill Royale,” 2016 winner of the Cawdor Cup at the Royal Highland Show in Edinburgh, Scotland.
What’s the meaning of his name?  Jupiter is the chief Roman god, husband of Juno, and god of light, sky, and weather.  I’ve chosen this image of Jupiter for June, since Jupiter and June clearly go together!  Spiritually, Jupiter's energy is optimistic, hopeful, compassionate and generous.

This image of Jupiter (the horse) was taken at Greg Davis' Making Pegasus ranch in Lockwood, California on April 21, 2022.  The background image of Jupiter (the planet), was found at https://mymodernmet.com/junocam-jupiter-photo-northern-regions/  ~ the image was taken with the Juno cam.
