I like how the elements of this image come together. The horse is obviously moving, as evidenced by the streaked lights in the bushes in the background. The slow 1/32 sec shutter speed caused the horse to be blurred, yet recognizable. Although the scene is well lit, you instantly know it was taken after dark. The only disconcerting note, in my opinion, is the cars in the background. The scene would be much nicer without 21st century elements.
All images taken with a Sony A350 and a Minolta 50mm f/1.7 lens.
