Every summer, this field in Sidliste Krc is used for things like circuses, carvinal rides, etc., but often horses are brought along, too. The rides were behind me when I took this. The orange line through the picture is the electric fence.

Here's another shot of the horses coming in.

Here's another ancient-looking shot from my 2007 trip to Kladruby. We were lucky enough to be there when the horses were brought in for feeding, and one of them, really a foal, charged us seconds after I took this, with the shot regrettably not coming out. In actuality, though, all of the horses were very friendly, and the foal wanted food. He had no intention as far as I know of actually hurting anyone.

This very retro-looking photo, made more so by the spectacularly anachronistic dress of the woman in the shadow on the left, was actually taken during my travels with my UJOP class (as a student) in the summer of 2007, same as the Litomysl photos, and indeed this was the next day. The reason the photo looks so old is that I originally underexposed it (my light meter was wildly off again), and when I cleaned it up in Gimp this was the best that I could do. This complex of buildings is part of the Narodni Hrebcin, or National Stud, where race horses are bred.

One of the attractions at the Prezidentska Chata is horseback riding, and this is one of their horses. I don't know the breed, though, so that would be a helpful bit of information if you know anything about horses.
