Ah summer time in your part of the world. 20 F here this morning and snow on the way today! Will have to get the snow shovel out for the first time this year. Ugh! Beautiful portrait of this horse and what a beautiful animal. Groomed to perfection for the show. Nice photo and thanks for sharing it.

Thanks so much David - not sure which would be worse the cold or heat although my mother who hated Australias heat used to say "you can put clothes on to keep warm but there is only so much you can take off"

Nice perspective & narrow DOF.
Excellent lighting, focusing & framing.

What a good shot, a beautiful horse. Very good focus and frame to show the horse in action. I do not miss the 100F, we had a hot summer now getting some really nice weather in November.

This is a very nice photograph. I like the placement of the horse in the photograph frame. The braiding of his hair is awesome! Good focus... and I love the rider's hands included in the photo!
