Challenge: Further On Up the Road (Advanced Editing VII)
Camera: Canon EOS-5D Mark II
Lens: Sigma 50-500mm f/4.0-6.3 EX DG HSM for Canon EOS
Location: Australia
Date: Apr 6, 2012
Aperture: 6.3
ISO: 500
Shutter: 1/3200
Date Uploaded: Apr 9, 2012

 This image was taken further on up the road...therefore it DOES meet the challenge.

The horse survived the fall with a few scratches on his leg.

The girl would have been okay, however as the horse stood up, he stood on the back of her leg.

The next day both girl and horse competed again...with a bandage or two.

Excellent stuff Judi - the processing is fantastic and the moment is spectacular.

Glad they are both okay - I guess they are both tough as nails, huh?!

I thought it was bad when my cat jumped on my back when I'm trying to sleep... She really shouldn't sleep there.

Congratulations on an awesome shot!


This is a female rider!!!! She is only a child.
