Show Jumping

Just a few images from the Dundalk Horse show. I was working there Saturday, and it was a VERY long day.

Sunday I wandered around for a short while, and just took a few images for myself.

Some I really like -







I'm sure you guys will have fun Monday out at Borderfox's place.

The third shot is lovely, well composed and timed. Great work!

Borderfox

Great selection of shots Paul. We even let you go early on Saturday but it was nice to see you back on Sunday. Are those shots from Saturday or Sunday?

That last one is excellent - lovely light and detail on the horse and a strong background.

#3 for me too.

All the shots posted were taken on Sunday. I had a good wander around but most images were taken in the main arena.

Three from myself, I know they look pretty similar but they are meant to only the horse should change. Sorry about the watermark

That's why I took images on Sunday.

It took a little bit to get used to the horses and the jumps. As the day went on (and on and on and on), I was getting more comfortable with the shots taken on Saturday.

Sunday I only snapped a few, and they were fairly consistent. I played around with some and did some non-standard editing, to change the focus.

It's certainly not an easy event to photograph, but I did enjoy.

Ìt kind of depends on the Horses too as some (as Paul I am sure will agree to) dont jump very well and you cant make a silk purse out of a sows ear Thanks Barry
