Photograph taken at; / Turpentine Park Thoroughbreds. / RJ Price Racing. This is my best mate Danny, better known as Flamingo Kid to the racing world and the public. He’s a stayer and a winner but he’s MY buddy, hehehehe. I wanna tell you’s all about my little buddy Dan. When I recently acquired my hearing aids (something necessary in my life now due to years of loud music from my singing days) and I first wore them to work I paid Dan a little visit in his stable. Usually, Dan loves to literally DEMAND cuddles to the point that if I take his rug off without giving him a cuddle first he has been known to pull my shirt up over my head to let me know I’ve ignored him lmao! But this day he sensed something was amiss. I went to give him his usual cuddles, anticipating his head heading for my chest with force as was usual but instead he looked at me really tentatively. Then he raised his head and gently starting smelling around my ears! I’m not kidding. Then he backed away and I could tell that he thought something was wrong with me and didn’t want to hurt me. My eyes welled up as I looked into those soulful, beautiful eyes of his and reassured him in a gentle voice that I was ok and then, only after a few minutes letting him know it was cool, he gently put his head in my chest. I hugged him so tight, my tears fell like silent rain as my love and appreciation for the moment we just shared flooded my soul. When I was growing up it was moments like these that I cherished for no one seemed to care let alone love me. Horses where my only release from a world of abuse. Moments like that are so special that you carry them with you forever.

I was a young fashion photographer’s assistant who had also photographed racehorses trained by my father. ITV heard the story and wanted to interview me with pictures of girls and horses. In this picture shot for Biba’s, a world famous boutique in Kensington High Street in the 60’s, I decided to combine them both. I borrowed the 20mm lens and the 250 exposure back from my boss, John Cowan, whose studio was used in the 1966 cult film Blow-Up and set off for Sussex. The 20mm lens had only just been introduced and was the first of it’s kind.

Hernandez / Results: finished 1st Camera: Canon Rebel XT w/ Canon 75-300mm lens / as is, from the camera, just cropped in photoshop Weather: Very cloudy… track was a mess until Race 6 when it was upgraded to “good.” Panning shot of the winner of Race 5. Loved how I caught the jockey biting his lip. For anyone who knows me, you know I do that while riding, too. Bad habits die hard. Once I managed to bite down over a jump on my old pony in a riding lesson and I nearly bit through my tongue! I am passionate about all horses, but have always had a dream to own and train my own racehorses someday. It probably won’t happen until I retire, if it does happen, but that’s the fun thing about dreams… you can have them even if they aren’t likely to happen. Although, I have been trying to get a plan together for getting friends together after college graduation to go in and buy a share of a racehorse with my boyfriend and I… so maybe it’ll happen sooner than I think :0) Thanks for your views and comments friends! My first attempt at horse racing photography. Enjoy! ♥ Louisville, Kentucky
Can’t seem to find my program from this raceday. I’ll dig it out at some point and update this with info about the horse & jockey. Canon Rebel XT w/ Canon 75-300mm lens Churchill Downs Louisville, KY
Tried to come up with something clever for this one. Wanted to call it “Ass Over Tin Cups” but wasn’t sure. lol. Just stuck with jockeys. Love the colors and silks. Horseracing is amazing to watch! Churchill Downs / Louisville, KY Canon Rebel XT w/ Canon 75-300mm lens

Cox Plate Race Day at Yarra Glen where the country races were in fine form last weekend, in the lead up to Melbourne Cup week. Quite a spectacle on a fine spring day. / I like to bet (loose change only)on grey horses to win and I wasn’t let down in this race…
