I know it has nothing to do with pot but this looks about as good as place as any to ask what ya think , if im breaking any rules please let me know and i will delet it.

i have to choose a picture to be printed on a flier advirtising me as a horse trainer and this friend of mine works for the cincinnati zoo in their sales and marketing department, she is gonna do me up some professional looking fliers and she told me it would be good to use a picture of the horse im training now, running so i did. the pictures are very similer but also very different if you know much about horses. so please let me know which one looks the best.

i like the pictures where you can see his eye, but if it is black and white, that won't matter. I know nothing about horses.

Don't know much about horses but I think #3 is the best. Has a good action feel to it. They all say "here's a cool horse" to me but that 3rd one just screams "here's a cool horse that kicks ass!"

Edit: One other thing I'm seeing. There is not a lot of contrast to the horse. Are you or your friend going to do some photoshop magic on it? A little level and contrast adjustments would help otherwise once printed it may look like the silhouette of a horse.

I go for #5, eye is clear, the way that the legs are arranged is cool, coat and mane looks great.
FYI
I know nothing about horses.

IMO shows the best balance and the stride is shown nicely. Not much action must be a western horse.

Or hunter-jumper (I know my horses, too). But, why the necropost? Countryboy had some serious problems a little while back and he hasn't been around for a while.
