Wild Horses

A gifted photographer, Lynne Pomeranz feels the moment and translates it to a medium that preserves it against time.   “As a photographer, I am reminded daily of how precious and fleeting a moment can be. I am drawn to horses, landscapes, objects abandoned and branded by time, and the sense of poetry in everyday scenes that tend to go unnoticed.”

According to an interview in the Gaited Horse, Spring 2004, “ Pomeranz is one of those best-kept secrets, whose images touch the heart like few others”.

Her equine images, which combine her love of horses with photography, have graced the covers of numerous publications, including The Gaited Horse, New Mexico Horseman’s Directory, Horsemen’s Voice, and the book “Tony & The Cows”.   She has received an Addie award and awards from the American Horse Publications.   Presently, she is represented by galleries in Sedona, Arizona, Santa Fe, New Mexico, Albuquerque, New Mexico and Durango, Colorado. In the Fall of 2006 her first book, “Among Wild Horses”, was released by Storey Publishing.

Lynne is no stranger to the ways and the world of the horse. She has dreamed horses since the age of three, is a long time equestrian and has had numerous jobs in the horse industry before turning to photography fulltime. Her own horse, “Night Warrior”, alias Teques Snickers, was her inspiration for the most recent portfolios of fine art photographs of horses in the New Mexico landscape and wild horses in the West. Though she enjoys photographing almost any breed for a variety of purposes, there is no doubt that she is happiest out on the range or in the wild pursuing her art…capturing images of horses as nature intended...as they wish to be...simply themselves.

In Lynne’s words,

“This is a turbulent time for America’s wild horses. In contrast to the beauty of the horses and dramatic landscapes that are their homes, I have also experienced the political battles that surround the wild horse controversy. These are once again precarious times for America’s wild ones. As our country becomes more populated and land diminishes, the battle between various factions over land use becomes more heated. Wild horses often end up at the bottom of the bureaucratic totem pole.    It is my hope that the photographs of the “wild ones” will inspire you to rally on their behalf.”
