+1
But, I think there is too much vignetting at corners. This shot asks for it, but you don't want to reveal that you've added afterwards. I might try to tone it done just a bit, so it doesn't reveal itself.
But all in all, it's a beautiful shot.

Re: Exhibit your B&W shots
Thanks for the kind words! The vignetting was the background & lens, the light center in the background is a patch of sand with darker dirt around it. The lens is a sonnar rangefinder design from ~1950 or so that Nikon briefly carried into their SLR mount. Wide open and near mfd exaggerates the vignetting too. I wish the other horse wasn't in the background though, he is distracting.
Natural vignetting from the Nikkor 5.8cm 1.4 wide open.

Wow, welcome with a wonderful shot Darren.
Re: Exhibit your B&W shots
Doc - I think the shot (which I agree is fabulous!) is one of Sury's? At least, when you click through it goes to Sury's Flickr account.
