"Golden Hair" depicts a white horse galloping freely across the green plains of Barzan, Kurdistan, during the golden hour. The black and white photograph emphasizes the interplay of light and shadow, highlighting the horse's raw power and fluid movement. The absence of color draws attention to fine details such as the flowing mane and textured grass, evoking a deep connection to unspoiled nature.
