This photograph is of my thirteen year old dark bay Gelding named Largo. He was a thourabreed and a ex-racehorse. He has such an amazing personality - him and my mum got on so well.
He was grumpy.
Dominant.
Agressive.
But he was also,
Protective.
Loving.
Free.
There are so many times where I said "What an idiot." or swore, he was stupid, and crazy although I love him so much and there are so many memories that I will never forget.
He used to wrap his neck around me for a polo mint, tickle it off my hand with his whiskers.
Everytime we called him, for his tea he'd sprint across, like lightning i was fantastic to see.
I LOVE THIS HORSE.
His death was tragic, an accident. He was stupid, and tried jumping something which ended with horrific concequeces. Luckily, he'd hurt himself so bad he wouldn't of known the pain he was in. <3
He is now, as we speak burried in our field, He will have his own headstone and will be loved and missed by my whole family.
The photo isn't the best - just one I found.
Largo, you drove me crazy. But just like I told you, when I cuddled you in my arms. I love you.

I was attracted to the gentle look in his eyes, then I read on and teared a little because of the words that followed. I'm faving this not only because his beauty, I'm faving this because I'm touched by the story behind this photograph that framed a million memories and I'm glad you shared it :)

He is in heaven waiting for the day you've had a joyful long life and went to join him in heaven.

Plus he's up there with the horse I learned to ride on. xD their probably competing against each other to see who is the fastest.
