Another odd angle for capturing a barrel racer. Usually pictures are taken while the horse is rounding the barrel but I wasn't at the right angle or distance to really get a good shot. Does this work?
Larry, I meant to do this ages ago. I'm sorry this took so long. After such a wonderful compliment I would be remiss if I didn't thank you. It made my day and then some! Thank you.
This is a WONERFUL shot! :) The lighting, the composition, the DOF (falls off on the rider's face a little, but still surprisingly good for the focal length used and the distance to subject), the MOVEMENT. The expression on the rider's face...all VERY well captured. This angle works BEAUTIFULLY...probably the BEST one you could've shot from, in my opinion. I don't even know you, but I can honestly say I'm proud of you. This is a VERY rare shot...I wish I could get one HALF this good! You go, girl! :)
