Having trouble posting, I'll give this one more shot. I would just like to say that I am glad to have finally found a forum that actually discusses photography and not things like ( is nikon better than canon ). Anyway I photograph animals mostly, in particular alot of horses. I look forward to sharing ideas and tips with everyone here.

Good to have you BAP. If you are trying to post photos, click the image button below and then paste in your jpg url. It should show up then

I also do equestrian photography, mainly hunter/jumpers. I have a 3 day show this weekend which is going to kick my butt! Then another the following weekend. I am trying to kick the pet portraits into gear for the winter.

If you need any help, just post and I am sure someone will give you the answers you need. And you are right, this is not a brand vs brand forum.

Welcome BAP. Look forward to seeing some horses.

Thanks for the welcome. It sounds like we pretty much have the same goals. I try to stay busy during the summer with race horses and in the winter with pet portraits. I have posted a few equine shots just to give you an idea of what i do. By the way, I am shooting my first jumper show this weekend, would it be possible to see some of your jumper shots. Thanks.

Here are some of mine I have put up in "Equine and Canine sports" On my website

Hey BAP,

Welcome!!
