Howdy Folks,
Opus Moon was founded by Cindy and Bill Loos to celebrate the
wild horses of America. Putting their musical and photography skills to use
they have written and recorded several albums of beautiful, meaningful and
moving songs, and taken thousands of stunning photographs of our noble wild
horses. Proceeds from the sale of their songs and photographs go to support efforts
to keep wild horses running free.

Opus Moon's efforts have been appreciated and noticed by
many like minded individuals as noteworthy and eye opening, bringing attention
to the plight of wild horses and burros at the hands of the BLM. One individual
so moved was Joseph Piner, documentary film maker whose latest project the
film, "Free Spirits – Saving America's Wild Horses" will be released
this fall. So touched was he by their songs and efforts that he featured their
music in his film.
Opus Moon owes its name to a late September evening when
Cindy and Bill were settling into their campsite, after a day of searching for,
and photographing the wild horses they'd come to know so well. A bright moon
hung high overhead and the sounds of the open range night drifted into the
campsite. So did the music of running wild horses. Opus is the coming together
of artistic composition, and this night the artistry of the call of an owl,
rustle of an evening breeze and wild horses running and nickering under that
bright moon was truly artistic.
