#363 - catch of the day

Another one of those surprises. Usually we'd see horse carriages on and off but never a horse rider before. It happened so fast; I didn't have time to frame the shot nicely. Still am satisfied with the result especially seeing that smile from the rider :)

Very good result caused it's very clear photo...Doesn't matter everyone knew already the face of a horse but to captured a moving object in CLEAR result is SOMETHING!

Nice shot. The essence was captured and that is all that is important to me.

I rolled on the floor, puked, screamed, and passed out. When I woke up the neighbor was gone.

The rider is so cute! Love this pic.

Kris, wanted to tell you how "sillily" excited I was to meet a friend of a friend this weekend. He is a post-doc student at Clemson and is from Hungary. I showed him your blog and he knows your town. :) (I still can't pronounce it right, but I'm better than before.) He said he is from a nearby town that starts with a G. It sounds to my ear like it starts with a U, but that is just my English perspective. I can't remember how to spell the rest of the town. Sorry! :( Anyway, he said you are on or near the boarder of Romania. It was really fun hearing about your area in person. :) Cheers!

Nice capture Kris. I see he has the spurs and chaps. He is ready to do some serious riding or just trying to make the ladies swoon.

Emily,

Lessie,
