Went to a horse trial over the weekend (three-day eventing on a local scale); tromped over hill and dale, scurried out of the way of galloping horses, got sunburned and learned a new (to me) photography term from the pro shooting the event.
It's called 'chimping', where one takes a photo, looks at the playback and goes 'Oooo, oooo, oooo, I got it!' Met a couple of other gals taking photos, too, and we 'chimped' all over the cross country course. Lots of fun and lots of photos!
Ooooo, oooo, oooo, I got it!
Not a great pic but boy, they came darned close to crashing. Horse and rider recovered and went on to finish the course.
Into the water and...
flying up the hill to the finish.
A little too much rein...
