The Wagoneers by Polly Peacock

Due to my fascination with the beauty of this old circa 1850’s wagon and the Draft Horses that lead the way, the owner invited us aboard! As a result, we not only made new friends that day, but I was thrilled to be able to take pictures from a higher level, which gave me a whole new perspective for capturing images! Apparently this wagon had been found in a field and lovingly restored. It made my entire experience during the reenactment of Sacramento Gold Rush Days, quite an exciting and exhilerating time! This photograph was taken with a Canon XTI.
Mediaeval Day #2 by MarianaEwa

Every year we have a Mediaeval Day here in Hassela, Sweden. A parade with pilgrims and performance. You could also buy honey, syrup, candles made of beeswax, clothes made of wool from sheep and angora rabbits. They also have performance like juggling and music. In the evening you could buy dinner. This year it was lamb that they have on the grill. Very tasty I could tell :)) / This picture is from the pilgrims parade. / This horse is a Nordsvensk häst her name is Lura. / This is the same girl and horse as in my A Girl and Her Horse / Taken with my Pentax K10D and Tamron 28-300mm Featured, November 2009 in Horses at Work

Steve's String by Donna Ridgway

Our friend Steve, told us he’d be packing up some mules and heading into the Bob Marshall Wilderness to take some dudes on a packing trip. He invited us to come and take photos while the mules were being packed. After the packs were on the mules, Steve headed up the trail toward Swift Dam-just west of Dupuyer, Montana. I actually took three photos of his string, but had to melt them together in Photoshop. It took some doing because I’d snapped each photo in the same place, as the mules went by. The exact same scenery was behind each mule, some of them were higher than the photo plane, and some of them were lower. I repainted this scene by cloning elements of the picture, and placing them where I wanted them. Repainted horses where they didn’t join up, painted in lead ropes, totally redid the scene to create what Robert and I saw that day. The dudes were following this string, on their individual horses. We learned a few days ago, Steve had surgery on his shoulder and his doctor told him, “no more packing mules!”. I’m glad we got these photos when we did, for Steve might not be able to do this next year. Three Photos taken with a Canon 10D / hand held / 70-300 mm lens / Photoshop Elements 7 Major editing involved. / Thank you! / / 10/09 / Thank you!

The Pacer by Cazzz

I was invited to a small holding where they bred & trained pacers. / James, the horse was so gentle the trainer took my 4 year old grandchild for the first circuit while the horse became use to seeing me on the edge of the track. He always seem to be looking directly at me as he raced past

In Training by Sandy Warren

Junior ponies a 3 year old American Quarter Horse mare from the back of his more seasoned AQHA gelding. Junior is a true cowboy and an excellent horse trainer and used the opportunity of our recent trail ride to expose the young mare to some sights and sounds she isn’t use to.

Bud stops his American Quarter Horse gelding on the pond dam to take a smoke break during our fall trail ride. Can’t risk setting the pasture on fire!
