This photo appears in Beautiful Britain, a magazine to which I happily subscribe. Click on “The Great Moor”, under “Sample articles.” (And isn’t that viewer a felicitous blend of old media and new).

The ponies look like something out of a fairy story; they seem by their very existence to confer a blessing.
