MonoMonday: "Simplicity"

We left Bath this morning and pottered our way eastwards through Wiltshire to our overnight stop a little west of London. As we drove we were pondering Carolina's MonoMonday challenge of "Simpicity", and we spotted this White Horse carved in the chalk on Milk Hill, just north of the village of Acton Barnes.  We thought it was a nice simple representation of a horse and I've processed it to make its surroundings on the hillside even more simple than they were already.

This particular white horse dates from 1812 and is the 4th oldest of the 8 remaining white horses in Wiltshire (the oldest dates from 1778, at Westbury and the newest - at Devizes - dates from 1999 as it was carved for the Millennium).

Tomorrow we're planning to visit one of my Editor's cousins who lives in Teddington, before starting to wend our way northwards.
