But I still know that if it were "me" and my horse,
I'd be feeling bad now.  And that makes me feel bad.

If the lady in the picture signed a model release (which, if somebody
used her picture in an advertisement, they should have gotten one from
her), then she should have taken a good look at the picture before
allowing it to be used.

Allowing your picture to be published in an advertisement is ASKING to
have it viewed and critiqued.  Advertisement are, by definition,
messages.  You want to take a good hard look at the messages you are
sending with the pictures you approve before approving them.  And if you
are in the picture, you don't want to let somebody else do this for you.

p.s.  Personally, I haven't seen the ad, or if I have, I haven't noticed
it; I rarely ever look at any of the ads in the EN; so I am not
commenting directly on the photo or the person in it, just that there is
no reason to "feel bad" about critiquing a photo in a published
advertisement.
