Equus Ferus Caballus – Guess What It Means

Germans call them “Pferde”, Frenchmen – “Chevaux”, Italians would say “Cavalli”, and Turks use the word “Atlar” to define these mammals… We, at Cruzine, would like to use the universal language of the photography or a visual image, which is clearly understandable worldwide by people of all the nationalities and races. Well, you have obviously recognized the animals, featured in the gallery below – these are horses, of course. Actually, apart from one upsetting incident with the Trojan horse, for many centuries of serving people horses have gained a very good reputation. Strong and enduring, loyal and friendly, clever and amusing - horses helped people in work and in war, in travels and in sport, in entertainment and even in medicine.

Interaction of horses with humans is significant. They have become an integral part of our culture and contributed greatly into our achievements and progress. One interesting fact from the science about horses is that there is only one kind of the true wild horse alive today – Przewalski’s horse. On the other hand, there are more than 300 breeds of domestic horses in the world today. We have included many photographic pictures of horses into this gallery, but it is still not enough to illustrate horses. Indeed, horses are individuals – even having similar appearance, all the horses have different characters. This feature makes them somehow similar to humans, isn’t it?

With 30 years of life experience behind my shoulders, today I find myself focused mainly around two core values: my family (I am a happy husband and a proud father) and IT in its broadest meaning, including but not limited to hardware and software techniques and innovations. My special interest and true passion is photography. Here I am ready to put my signature under each word, once said by Dorothea Lange: “The camera is an instrument that teaches people how to see without a camera.” Being a part of Cruzine team, I enjoy instant process of learning as well as sharing my own experience in photography and IT with the readers of this digital magazine.
