I think the closer you get, the more impact the shots have. Amazing really, lovely quality all round. Makes me think differently about our local horse events where I am always much further away than this.

Impressive shots, as DK says I like the close up nature of them.

They are all great but I too think number 3 is the standout.

Astoundingly good action captures! My favorites is the third with the whole horse and rider fully in the air and fully in the frame. The second is very well composed as well.

Really good action shots, again wonderful detail, my personal favourite is #2 of this set, although I'd be happy to have taken any of them.

Hi Gustav - the portraits and these jumpers are wonderful - I like #3 in this set the best - it almost makes me back away from the monitor to avoid the oncoming horse :o Capturing the horse and rider in mid air so well is just amazing. I like the crowd in the background as well - they really make the shot for me. Bravo!
