Hello journey viewers!

Took a trip to Ruila, Estonia for a spot of horseback riding. Lots of hard, back breaking fun! I barely had time to shoot what with all the riding and brushing horses and eating and sleeping and did I mention the oh so short daylight hours? :D

Did manage to scrape something together for ya though. Here goes.

Next day I had time to shoot some action.

Anne looking sweet while trying to hide behind the saddle.

Katja taking Garfild out to the arena, the expectation is quite visible on her face.

Next I took a peek outside. We were basically on the edge of a small sparse village, in the middle of some fields.

I went back in as I heard pole dropping, sure enough the ante had been knocked up a notch.

Next day, after one more stint in the saddle, we were heading back. A couple of quick portraits to pass the time.

To close off a good trip, there was a gorgeus mother-of-pearl cloud sunset, which I shot from the deck of the ferry.

    I liked the sunset a lot and horse in flight
