Eventing Nation is about eventers, for eventers, and by eventers. A few weeks ago JER sent me an idea for a reader submission series that I thought was a perfect implementation of our core EN principles. Like Visionaire's world famous Rider Profiles, "The View From My Horse" will be a regular feature driven by our readers. "The View From My Horse" is also a public service to anyone who, like me, spends a good part of their life walking/hacking their horses--take your camera with you. Here's how it works:
1) Take a picture from your horse's back. **Both of your horse's ears must be visible.**
2) Write a paragraph introducing yourself and your horse and describing the picture/why you took it.
3) Send both pic and paragraph to eventingnation@gmail.com with subject "View From My Horse"
The rules: There are no rules!!! Except these...
--The image should be a .jpg of good quality. Cell phone cameras set on maximum resolution should be fine.
--Don't fall off your horse while taking the picture.
Show us your beautiful barn, show us your helplessly old farm truck, show us the awesome course you just jumped, show us where you board, show us your stall decorations at a horse show, show us your coach yelling at you for standing there and taking a picture of them, show us the barn cat, show us any view from your horse that you can possibly imagine. The options are limitless!
Oh, I almost forgot, the photo on the post is from Hannah Burnett on St. Barths, taking a picture of the beautiful Montana scenery while at the Rebecca Farm CIC3*. Hannah used her cell phone set on maximum resolution.
Go eventing with a camera.
