I was tossing up whether to send this one in next month for the alternate
light gallery, but decided two months of horse racing suits me just fine. :-)
Thanks for the comment. I wanted a faster shutter speed to give the horses'
heads a bit less movement blur. The legs are going to be like that, no
matter what I do when I'm shooting at night. The subject matter, though, is
really Wayne Reid, and I thought it showed the emotion, determination, and
technique of driving one of these horses.
Thanks for the kind words, they are appreciated.
Cheers
Jon
