Horse Farm in S Windsor, CT

My son, Joe, and I were taking a ride around town one afternoon looking for something that says New England or Connecticut. I think this one says it pretty good. The sun was coming down just right to show off what little bit of foliage has started to come out.

Let me know what you think of this one. Just click on the picture to go to my blog and to see this shot larger. Thanks for looking.

Jumper

We went to an Equestrian event today at the Florida State Fairgrounds in Tampa.

The horses were 5 & 6 yr olds, and competing in the stadium jumps. This one's form is perfect. His hooves are even, and he looked great. Sorry, I don't remember how he placed.

It was a lot of fun watching them and it reminded me how I used to go to all these events with another friend to photograph the events for the Bits and Bites Horse Club in Tampa.

This is another of the horses. I fell in love with him. He is unusually colored and just beautiful.
He belongs to a mother/daughter team. The daughter is the rider.
