You can see the velvety nose of a Haflinger, as you can see the horse is grazing or nibbling on its hay and its interest is piqued by the photographer.
In the photo you can see how soft the horse's nose is.
If you look further, you can see that this horse has many touch hairs on its nose.
Touch hairs are used by the horse as "feelers" to search for food or explore its surroundings, also they make sure that the horse does not bump itself hard.
The horse is an animal that can mirror, it senses how a human feels and will adapt to your feelings.
This horse knew that what was expected of him and stood nicely waiting for a nice close-up to be taken of his soft nose.
