GVRDC Firecracker Derby (Horse Jumping)

Hello, here is a few quick pictures of my wife and her friend from today. Thank you for looking, and always open to advice.. just starting out and hoping to learn some tips from the talented people of this forum

Love the first one! Great shots!

I like the last one the best. That's quite the outfit! Your timing and angle on that one is the best. It's always preferable to have all four hooves off the ground. If I were to get picky, it could have been taken a fraction of a second earlier, and it would show off the horse's form (knees) a bit better. The smaller the jumps, the harder it is because the horse is not off the ground as long. 1st shot is early. It's at a point that is fairly unflattering to the horse. Makes their bellies look big. Second is great timing, but it would be better if you were standing 10' to your right so you could see the horse and rider's face.

Thank you both, very much appreciate it CanadianKitKat.

This event was a lot of fun, here is three more from the day if you are interested in some of the great costumes
