Gauteng Horse Society


I have never tried horse jumping before....taking photos I mean. I think if a horse just looks at the size of me they shit themselves and hope I have no intention of getting on them.

The event was held at Kyalami. I thought it would be an easy sport to shoot, the horses are big and they travel at a reasonable speed. I was wrong.

As the shots I took was as they approach you, focusing was bit of an issue, and then when they jump they are all over the park in your viewfinder. Needless to say a lot of amputations where to be had on the day.....shame poor horses and riders.

But all in all a lot of fun and I will try it again.

Cheers
