I was hoping this was yours. It's very nice for a competition photo. Pretty amazingly clean background for a show grounds too. -7 from me... I know how hard it is to get one like this!
Lovely! soooooo close to the very perfectest moment, horse is balanced, relaxed and not on the forehand, rider is not looking down, and the softness of the BG really makes the subject stand out. Bravo!
the soft focus and glow work well here - empasizing the elegance dressage. Good composition - the horse and rider on thirds lines, the stong white rail grounding them in back and the simple green foliage behind. The photo IS dressage - elegant and controlled.
This is a good capture. I take a few dressage pictures myself every once and a while. I'm curious though, if you shoot dressage alot? If so would you quantify this as your best dressage picture? It is a wonderful stop action, but best of 2006? Still, for technique I'll give an above average rating. Good luck to you. Cheers.
