    Challenge 145: Action shots
    DESCRIPTION:
    This is the first time I've chosen a challenge so I'm playing it safe as most of the photos I take are sports photos. The idea behind this challenge is to freeze frame the action so to speak. The pictures don't have to be of sport but they do have to capture movement, the more emotion or excitement the better!

    RULES:

    Opening date will commence at the time of this post.
    Closing date will be 2 weeks from now on Tuesday the 9th December 2014 at 8pm
    Only photos taken with this challenge in mind qualify - therefore the photos must be taken from now until the closing date.
    Only 1 photo per post, but submit as many posts as you like.
    The next challenge will be chosen by the person who has the most thanks after the closing date of this challenge.
    Image size must be no longer than 800px on the longest side

    Perfect Gentleman ridden by PW Mullins is a faller at the 2nd fence in the 2.05 Fairyhouse/Sunday

    As links below show both jockey and horse were fine and recovered quickly
    ( the links do not form any part of the challenge and are added just to show the wellbeing of horse and jockey after the fall)
