Second Attempt

[pcho]

BTW thanks again for all your input and advice. I hope I have learnt something. This time I shot at lower f Stop, F4 down from F5.6. I was tempted to use F2.8 but I thought I better not expriment in a live shoot. I went back this morning to shoot at the Equestrian event and the sky was overcast so the shadows are not as bad.

Nice work, Perry! :)

[Joe F.N.]

This is really good work Perry but I have a clear favourite. #6. That magnificent rise of the jumper having cleared the ground. WOW!

[Keith]

Very nice work Perry, spot on! enjoyed that set :)

[Mao]

You did excellent. Hope you at least had some sleep rather than fretting over it, lol.

[Jeff JTPhoto]

Well done Perry ... A very nice collection.

[chezem]

Great capture. Just love them

[Bobby]

Beautiful set Perry, the light definitely was in your corner on this shoot. Your clients will love you for this presentation. Both animals, human and equine are captured perfectly.

[Harv]

Beautiful series, Perry. A job well done. Anxiety aside, this had to be a lot of fun for you. Way to go.

[Ann]

Great set of action shots!

[Peter]

Terrific set. Well captured.:)

[ahockenberry]

nice work

[Kevin]

I'd still prefer a bit more wide open. Though the background on the first ones is in context it's still a bit distracting. I do like what you've done here though. There are some great action shots. I'm with Joe, #6 stands out to me.

[Jytte]

Simply a great set of photos - enjoyed them very much - I too think number 6 is the most interestering to look at - and I wonder what it would have looked like if you had pushed the button just a tiny moment later on some of them - I mean - they didn't all make it without faults did they ??

PS. Had a look at them again after my comments. They grow on you !!!!

These are great. I especially liked the 6th one mostly because of the way the people in the background are arranged around your subject, but also the great pose of the horse, although I would clone stamp out the elbow and jacket of the person standing on the right.
