    Hey good work! Nice to see something different.

    Looks like you blew the highlights on the faces with the front-on log jump - which is a shame. But overall, some really good stuff!!

    Horse events are probably one of the hardest sports to shoot, one has to get everything right.

    The third shot gets it perfectly, every muscle of the horse and a great shot.

    Well done.

    I love the 2nd shot in the second series cookie!

    Wow The depth of the color on that bay is incredible!!!

    Why is it that those jump markers are always in a bad spot, they should be done away with!

    hiya Cookie,

    you've got some great action here! nice job. But I agree about some of the riders faces being a bit blown out. But I reallly like the 1st race shot and absolutely love the intensity in the 2nd xc shot. Spot onclap.gif
