Photo Challenge: 20 Reader-Submitted Equine Funny Faces (Preliminary Round)
We received so many good entries for this week’s photo challenge that we decided to exhibit them in two rounds! Today, we’re taking a look at the honorable mentions in the preliminary round.
We’ve all heard the “hey, why the long face?” jokes, but truthfully the equine face is capable of making a multitude of expressions. Alternately, those of us armed with a camera are really good at catching this most noble creature in moments of hilarious weirdness on an otherwise perfect face day. Either way you look at it, these photos are pretty hysterical.
We’ll share our top 10 favorites tomorrow!

Lili Giese: I don’t have the full face, but this is what I see everyday when I walk outside: pony nose. Photo by Lili Giese.

Keep an eye out for next week’s 24-hour photo challenge! We announce challenge subjects on Monday around the middle of the day on both Instagram and Facebook.
Go riding!
