The whole horse

I have some issues posting pics of myself, I think it's a little like blowing your own trumpet, and especially in the action shots I tend to look like a real idiot. But I haven't posted in ages, and I needed to post something to break the blogger's block. As the horse-riding thing was what I spent most of my long weekend doing, I thought I'd give you some shots of my whole horse (I did the half a horse a short while back)


Dartmoor (my horse) is a bit of a nervous character and I love this photo of him because it really captures his nature and what I imagine is going through his mind at the time. Something along the lines of "Oh crap oh crap oh crap open space oh crap oh crap". If you you were wondering what he's looking at with such wide eyes in the picture, it's probably the photographer, he finds them quite suspicious.




This is another of my favourites. This is Dartmoor doing what he does best, and looking at least a little like he's enjoying it :-)

I'll post something a little more meaningful later...

The first picture really does capture the ever alertness of Dartmoor perfectly - no lion jumping from the shadows will ever surprise him!
