Like a lot of you I look through my photos a lot, always looking for something for one meme or another. There are a few times I could have used the picture and I did use one of the series I took this day for a Capture Your 365 prompt.<\/p>\n<p>I was driving home on the motorway and noticed a number of horses in a field that I hadn&#8217;t noticed before. I thought I might get some pictures for my stash. Horse pictures can be very useful! It took me ages to locate the field once off the motorway but eventually I was thrilled to see them in a field, right by the fence and being fussed over by a lady, their owner? I wondered.<br \/>\nBeing the friendly sort I got chatting to her to learn that these five horses had been abandoned by? Who knows, plenty of guesses yes but&#8230;They had been there a few months apparently, local people had been bringing them water, this lady had bought hay for them. I felt sick to my stomach, I don&#8217;t really like horses because they scare me but I was so so sad and angry that someone could just abandon five horses like this&#8230;right on my door step. They were hungry, muddy and in need of some love. They were so friendly, letting me stroke them and talk to them.<\/p>\n<p>I took some pictures of course. The next day I went to the wholesaler and bought a sack of carrots for them. Paul and I hand fed them. Paul is even more afraid of them than me it turns out.  It felt good to conquer my fear.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve really not felt like using the pictures but Kat&#8217;s practice has encouraged me to do so today.<\/p>\n<p>I drove by the field on Thursday morning, they are gone. They were loved, lets hope they still are.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/miriamrogers.co.uk.gridhosted.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Phot-Heart-Connection-April-2014.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/miriamrogers.co.uk.gridhosted.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Phot-Heart-Connection-April-2014.jpg\" alt=\"Phot Heart Connection April 2014\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11008\" srcset=\"https:\/\/miriamrogers.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Phot-Heart-Connection-April-2014.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/miriamrogers.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Phot-Heart-Connection-April-2014-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/miriamrogers.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Phot-Heart-Connection-April-2014-449x300.jpg 449w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kat Sloma hosts a wonderful practice each month called Photo Heart Connection.
