I really need some feedback from you. I think this might be a case of misplaced subject. It's difficult but I can re-stretch the canvas over a square frame to get the one on the right. I'm torn what to do. Prehaps I just need more of the bright blue in the left corner to keep the viewer's eye interested. The more I think about it the more I think that's what I need to do rather than cropping the canvas. But please tell me what you think.

You probably already figured this out but the division from light to dark on the background is too dramatic and too close to the middle. I love the subject and I actually love the way it looked with the umber background. I also thought maybe you could try a much larger brush for some of those energetic brush marks in the background. I really like the glow showing through on the reflected light under the hooves and bucking strap. Keep up the good work Faye!
