Great photos. I see there were some other photographers there as well :D

Did the horse not make the jump in the last one?

I'll copy+paste from flickr

Rising young (21 I think, ironically named Jamie Winning) Aussie showjumper, competing for $150000 first prize. She plus another were the only ones to go clear on the first round, and she did it easy looked a class above everyone else. Rails were falling all over the place from most of the other competitors.
Out in the second round, second to last to go, the pressures on. Comes up to the first fence and then..... $150000 down the drain.

I've got the sequence of her sliding into the fence, but felt this shot best told the story.

Thanks. Those shots are amazing.

Interesting to see someone with a 1D2 carrying a 400D as their second body :D Jus wondering, why do you stop down so much? I would think a little thinner depth of field would draw attention away from the people in the background.
