In No Words Or Less
A life with horses and photographyArchive for July, 2007
Goldmark Brutus and Dawn Newman
Heard the terrible news this afternoon, that Brutus is dead.
Killed by idiotic people who stole the electric fencing (for the copper wire) around his paddock.
I cannot even find the words for how angry I am at those … disgusting scum (i won’t even call them people)
and i cannot find the words to express how sad i am at the loss of this magnificent horse with the heart of a lion.
I am honoured to have been able to take his photograph.
*shakes fists*
ok.
so i was having a look at equinesa, for the advert that M put up for Witchy…
while doing so, i was shocked to see how many of my photos have been stolen (and yes i can use that word, because these people didn’t even ASK to use them, unlike M) to use in adverts… and that’s just in the WARMBLOOD adverts!!!
I didn’t even WANT to go look at the other breed categories!
Don’t people realise that i’m trying to earn a LIVING off these photos?
THis is why i had to start uploading such damn small photos!! i’m TIRED of having them stolen!
I got soft and started uploading bigger again… but no more, people, sorry, no more.
i am ANGRY.
Caramba Steaming
SDRC SANEF Qualifying rounds were held on Saturday and Sunday (i only made Sunday).
Early morning was very cold but it turned into a bright beautiful mild day – perfect weather for dressage.
There were some awesome tests – and this was only the warmup for next weekend’s big SANEF dressage show.
I must admit, i did want to go to George for the eventing (all my faves are off to that) but i couldn’t afford it right now, and i was asked to be the official photographer at the SANEF dressage anyway… and i do love my dressage…
SDRC Dam&Dyke
One of my favourite shots from last weekends Dam&Dyke competition.
Turbo Flo and Belinda
Held at the Stellenbosch Riding Club – it was a day of intermittant BUCKETING rain, and dark broody clouds.
The light was so bad in the morning that i missed 2 rounds of show jumping because my camera just couldn’t take a clear shot!
It got better later, and when it rained i huddled in a deserted dressage judge box
