Went out and shot the first horse show of the season.... I pulled out a couple funny lookin ones. I generally erase the ones with strange expressions on the people...the horses always make me laugh tho...

I missed a couple crashes but I did get this poor girl crashing on the same fence on back to back attempts. Only bumps and bruises (no broken wrists...). The horse had a couple mean refusals, drops its shoulder... instant dismount...

I suppose while we are lookin at horse shots I might as well redeem everyone and myself with some real nice shots :thumb

    Yikes, like 50% of those riders need to have their reins taken away for a while. deal.gif

    You got some really cute shots too though, like the congrats hug girl on the bay. And the fall shots are quite good...and painful looking!

    Nice job :)
