@Ricardo, it's actually a fly mask. it Keeps the flies off of their face. They take it off when riding. They can see through the mask as it has tiny holes like a screen.

Graham, the entire point of this shot was the fly mask. The horse can see us but we can't see the horses eye. THAT is the point. The title of the posting is "The Masked Bandit. The picture would actually have LESS impact if the mask was NOT on his face

@adrian, I rarely count off of a picture where the subject matter is "not my cup of tea". That to me doesn't seem like an accurate way to judge the merit of the picture. The elements I look for are process, POV and composition. Even if it's a subject
