this photo can cheer me up any old day of the week

Friends, today has been frustrating.  I was going to call it a wash and hope for a better one tomorrow but this photo makes me happy. 

And yes, I did print the image out and put it next to my desk at work, and then added the book* to my Christmas list.

*as far as I can tell, the book is called Equestrian Style by Vicky Moon, and the photo is by Francine Zaslow.  I found it on This is Glamorous via Decor8.  Oh, design blogs, I love you.
