More Fair: Why I love shooting horses...

Look at these beauties!!! Though not always behaving as their riders would like, have you seen anything so awesome! I think this is why I keep coming back each year to shoot the horse show events— despite the sometimes-blistering heat, misbehaving camera, burning sun and clouds of dust. I do it to capture horses in their complete and total awesomeness. ;-)

Yes, the girl fell off but was no worse for the wear. I actually shot a series of 6 photos of this rear and they plan to frame the series of photos. :-)
