Your other comment got me thinking about this again, and this one just confirms it: the way I create images has a great deal to do with the way I see things. I'm remarkably nearsighted and have no depth perception. Focus is a feature of the images, but, as is the case with this image and the one you panned, what is focal in the image is not what is *in* focus. I don't see depth even IRL so in compositions I tend not to consider it as part of the composition in a conventional way, all I "see" is the colour and shape. What you get in these pictures is what I would have seen peeking around these horses as a three-year old. In #1 I'm looking at the birdhouse, in #2, the tree, and in this one, as you've noticed, the other horse.

I agree that this one, and the 4th one that I am about to post, are more successful at presenting my perception of the world than the first two.
