19 Reader-Submitted Mare Glares: Special Divisions

With over 100 entries for our Mare Glare Challenge, we decided to split the class … for everyone’s safety. Next up: category winners!

This week’s 24-hour photo challenge received an overwhelming response of outrageous mare glares from every corner of Horse Nation. There were just too many good ones to pass up, so we decided to split the class and create a few special divisions in addition to the Open Mare Glare. Don’t miss the Best of Show collection yet to come!
