    Hey Ruth, you couldn’t have timed that one better. Spruce meadows is a fabulous place for these shots. I swear I have that same rider about 15 years ago…

    Great jumping shots, all of them. I particularly like this one, with all the horse’s feet at the same level, well tucked …did she win???

  • whisperingruth

    Ah, that’s so very much for your nice comment as always Denzil. . . Unfortunately this gal did not win. A Canadian rider, Ian Miller won the big prize.

    I’ve also just noticed the reflections in the windows behind the action – love the capture of the Spruce Meadows name, as well as the US and Canadian flags. Excellent!
