Equestrian Australia Horse of the Year 2009

Thank you to everyone that has phoned and emailed me with comments about the new site - seems that most are finding it easier to get around and the Favourites and Package features have been really popular!

The first major event to be placed on the new site was Equestrian Australia Horse of the Year last weekend and all photos have now been loaded to the galleries. Horse of the Year was a good couple of days with some lovely winners and some great workouts along the way. The galloway class in particular was a beauty, nearly every horse in that class showed sensationally - that sure makes my job so much easier to do.

My favourite photo from the weekend came about as Nottingham Fine Print ridden by Pam Bush was sashed Galloway of the Year. What a great reaction - it made my day!



Congratulations to all competitors it was a nice event to photograph and I even managed to find time to catch up and have a chat (how very unusual) with some of my friends, one I hadn't seen in about 20 years, so all in all a good weekend at the show.

I decided to run a promotion on this show where all online orders received within the first 7 days will go into a draw to win an 11x14 print of their favourite photo from their order. That will be drawn on Monday 30th March and the winner will be announced here. Good luck to all!

Next week is a busy one, I have a lovely doggie and owner portrait to shoot and they are always good fun and then off to the Grand National to watch the best horses in Australia compete - when you love what you do, it doesn't feel like work!

See you at the show.
