Grand Prix Jumper-2

Here is another photograph taken during the Grand Prix jumper event at the recent Traders Point horse show in Indiana. This is a nice action shot taken at the peak of the jump. The location is actually the same fence shown in the previous post but I had moved slightly more to my left to see the horses more from the side and to shoot in the horizontal format. Unfortunately, this angle put more background clutter into the image. The intermittent rain showers kept me close to the tent and there were many other spectators, both of which made it difficult to find other locations to shoot from. Nonetheless, I like the image for its portrayal of action.

70-200 lens at 150mm, 1/1250 second at f/3.5, ISO 250.
