This is a nice local event for me which I have covered a few times now. I spent the whole 2-day event covering the show jumping arena, which I love to photograph as it lets me get creative with angles and ways to shoot images of both the horses and riders.
With one camera in hand and another set up on remote triggers I was able to cover multiple jumps and get lots of different images of the riders as they raced around the arena. I really like using a remote camera as you can get into places you cannot physically go or wouldn’t want to, this can produce some really dramatic photos as the horses fly over the jumps.
These are always long days and you have to be fit as you don’t stop moving around, but I really enjoy photographing these types of events.
