A Snowy Pine Top

Well, on the eve of Feb 12 at Pine Top, there weren't the usual cast of characters on the grounds as one expects at a horse trial, but those who were there were running around throwing snowballs and have a good time with what was coming down. We knew before turning in that it was to be a delayed start the next day. I did all I could to get to be so that I could rise and have coffee early enough to go out on the landscape photographer's trek.  Half the battle on landscape photography is to just show up! The other half is mostly something about narrow apertures and tripods... That was muscle memory...

It was an interesting enough trapse, but what was the weirdest of all is that it was the only time I can ever remember walking the Pine Top xc course and not seeing anyone! Really quiet and peaceful, and the air was spectacular.

I knew that it would be a chance of a lifetime and that it would mostly be gone by 3PM that same day. Glad I was there.  Look at more of it HERE.

Pine Top 2010 Winter I Horse Trial

I'm sure you all who are used to seeing my trailer there by the office were wondering if I made it! I did, but my truck was misbehaving on the way down, so I had to just get in a car and come to Thomson! I was out there ringside for stadium until the light was just too dark. Odd thing as well at 5:30 was that it was fogging up a bit, so everything was getting even more wet than if it were just spitting out there.

All pics are now on line, so go on over to take a look.. There's a note in the show there about a deal for the show disc. See you all at the Winter II and III, and certainly at the next show in Aiken!

September '09 Paradise Horse Trial

Hey, we lucked out! While the rest of the state was under water, we had to remind ourselves that we were, indeed, in Paradise. Or on the edge of it anyway.. That nasty system moved up I-85 and went right above us, leaving us with a nice comfortable day, albeit 95% humidity. Most important of all, my cameras stayed dry!

As of now I've finished the uploading, so if you rode and still see empty gallery, send me a message!
