#1840 Encore & Tor Gift Set

Wild at Heart celebrates the beauty and power of the wild horse. Feral horses can be found across the world, from the Mustangs of the American West to the Brumbies of Australia. For this month's Photo Show, we're looking for photos of your Breyer horses living their best "wild" lives!

As a reminder, please make sure to follow all local, state, and federal mandates regarding health and safety protocols if you will be taking photos in a public area. We want you to stay healthy!

Please remember that figures are not required, but some themes benefit from the addition of them, and the judge will consider the overall scene. If a figure is used, it must be a Breyer figure. All other props, tack and scenery are up to you and your imagination!

HOW TO ENTER:

Create an original scene for Wild at Heart. For this Photo Show, we are looking for entries that depict wild horses! 

Figures are not required, but some themes benefit from the addition of figures and the judge will consider the overall scene.  If a figure is used, it must be a Breyer figure. All other props and scenery are up to you and your imagination!
