Great captures. Looks like 70-400 is a great lens. Is it as good as 70-300? Just curious.

I prefer the first as an action shot. The second one looks more like a wishes postcard to me.

I like the last one, a good shot against the light.

Thanks guys

What was interesting was the lack of other photographers there. It's the first time I've ever been, and understood from my friend who I went with, that its a big date on the eventing calender - so expected to see a few shooters there - but only saw one other kitted up photographer there.
