A whinny signifies permission to film? What if followed by a snort? And if the ears are pulled back? I guess you won't need signed release forms at the APA convention then. Don't let any of those shrinks kick you or trample your new camera underfoot to signal unwillingness to be filmed!

Keep up the great work, John!

Hey, Moira. You're really gonna find this funny. One of the horses actually did snort. I edited the clip as if to show the horse bringing the interview to a close. Also, the other day, I got some great unicorn footage. Superficially, the unicorns in my area resemble white horses - their tusks don't grow in till late summer so it's easy to see why people mistake them for horses. And a couple of days ago I went out looking for mountain whales.

Shooting (not literally) psychiatrists is gonna be easy next to this. :)
