Same here, I would have focused on the horse and maybe not cut the head. Another one in stock?

I do have one focused on the horse's head, but this one conveys a whole different message - picture the image labeled "Freedom".
An image focused on the horse's head is one of about 356481000000000 ones of the same kind, I find it boring.

I find it refreshing that you didn't focus in on the horse. That would have made it another cliche "horse behind a fence" shot. The way you have it shown here gives a nice impressionistic feel, and I personally like that.
Thank you for not going with what is expected. :)

I think the slight out of focus horse, totally makes the shot, I love it, a fav for me :)

I'm having trouble seeing your different message. I get it, but it still is too easily taken that you used autofocus and the camera focused on the barbed wire instead of the horse.

hm.. also wenn ich ehrlich bin is mir des bild zu matt und zu hell... ausserdem wärs cooler wenn der fokus auf dem pferd läge

I like the strong diagonal lines. I would have put the horse down 2 or 3 posts and focused on the horse to draw the viewer in. How would that be done you ask? Probably move your position. It's well worth another shot! You're on to something here.
