One of my all time favorite jumping photos. The horse and rider seem to be in perfect sync without a hint of fear in their eyes. The strong muscular arch of the horse is what caught my eye when I first saw this photo.
I took this image back on June 15, 2012, and was never happy with it. I've learned a lot about processing since then, and here is my final result. Not an award winner, but not too shabby either.
