Some cross country & showjumping....

Not posted anything for a while so thought it was about time i got a few up....

Anyway as some may be aware, i recently got the 70-200 f2.8 IS and i'm loving it.... heres a couple of shots from different days, not had time to do any editing so these are just straight un-edited jpegs from the camera no PP

Some showjumping......

Steve75 , Nice money shots well done .

I see you were a Badminton I dont see the fence I was at all day yes all day cooking here is a ... few

Good Luck
Roy

Thanks Roy, I went round Badminton backwards! i never quite made it your fence before it finished!!! Some fantastic shots you got there though!!

Lovely Steve, really sharp can i ask how much it cost you? or darent i ask!

Im off to MKEC for a ODE tomorrow

well if i write it really small it might not seem so bad..... £1060

I'm just glad that i've not been dissapointed with it! I had my doubts when the money dissapeared out of my bank but after looking at the shots all my doubts flew out the window.....

I got it from 'Kerso' who sells on here and eBay, compared to the likes of jessops & warehouseexpress his prices are much more reasonable!

Are you riding tomorrow or doing photos??? or both.... maybe a few shots as you go round???

Anyway good luck on sunday! I'm shooting my local pony clubs summer show tomorrow, i'm absolutely bricking it!!! my first proper event as an 'official photographer' they have got 7 different rings running and just poor me running round like a headless chicken between em all...... i see a disaster about to happen!

Great shots there!

Maybe next time you should also try 'n get a picture where the horse is actually facing you. All these pics were made from the side or cross. I've seen your pics on your website, so I know you are pretty good at it!..just a little thing that I noticed with this particular series.

Hi Clare18 , Re: MKEC

Enjoy yourself tommorrow but just be aware there are two resident photographers paying to be there one is John and the other is Paul both . They don't work on the same days but one of them will be there possibly Paul if it's dressage .

My advice would be just let them know what you are doing as they are both very approachable unless you take their bread and butter .

Great Shots Steve. Timing, sharpness, and a nice smooth background on most. I would agree with the other poster on getting more than just profile shots. I like the almost head-on magazine cover type shots quite a bit.
