Ha Ha thats ok!! She does pick up but sometimes gets her into trouble-she seems to have taken the flamboyant approach to life!!

Better than a half hearted approach!! She's really lovely.

xxkarenxx · 12-03-2008, 17:17

Yeah I suppose it is! Big turn around for her cos when she started out she was not impressed with x country at all. Went schooling and took 20 mins to get her on a bank and then another 40 to get her off it!! And as for water.........

Wow, you must have really won your girl over!!!
I think you get that cautiousness with mares though. Geldings generally seem that bit more cocky. Mind you, when a mare trusts you, I think they'll try their heart out for you!

Hi Borderfox,

Fantastic photos.
What camera do you use and how much would it cost to get started?

**Borderfox** · 18-03-2008, 10:32

I use a Canon 1dmk3 and a Canon 5d with a variety of lenses from 17mm to 300mm. You can use any camera to get nice shots of Horses, I started with a 5 mega pixel one from Argos (below) You can really spend a lot to get started but if you get a cheapish camera and try it out and see if you like it
