About the Item

Halt – by Mark Harvey A moment of control. The horse is brought ot a halt during dressage. Dramatic light and flying sand captures this dynamic, authoritative moment as power combines with fine control. This evocative black-and-white photograph captures the dynamic power of a horse in motion. The image freezes a dramatic moment as the horse’s hooves kick up a cloud of dust, creating a vivid contrast between the dark silhouette of the legs and the pale dust particles.Harvey masterfully uses lighting and shadow to emphasize the muscular tension and graceful movement of the animal. The composition focuses on the lower half of the horse, evoking a sense of mystery and immediacy, while the swirling dust adds texture and depth. This image uniquely portrays the raw energy and unrestrained spirit of the horse, offering viewers a glimpse of untamed freedom. The monochrome palette enhances the timeless quality of the scene, inviting reflection on the beauty and intensity of the natural world. Mark Harvey is renowned for his carefully crafted lighting and detailed animal studies. His photographic style lends a dramatic, almost sculpture-like stillness to his subjects. His Equine series captures the dignity and beautiful lines of thoroughbred horses. Harvey uses a medium format Hasselblad camera. The medium format approach and hi-speed flash synchronisation creates images of phenomenal detail and clarity even at the largest sizes. – Limited Edition of 15 The edition numbers are fixed to 15 prints and divided across the four print sizes.
