This photo of a horse being in black and white allows for greater definition of the muscles and texture of its mane/body. It adds drama and intensity. However, the horses mouth, belly and eye gets somewhat lost in the extremely dark background. I would try to focus on the levels of these areas by playing around with the highlights to bring a little more definition to these parts of the horse.
