Yep, I’ve decided to go with the second MISSED OPPORTUNITY from yesterday:
Yesterday, I also included a photo of the flag furled in a way that sort of folded itself over itself, and with the sun backlighting it, it made a sort of checkered pattern. I remember I captioned it “Stars and Checks”. Oh well. It was fun while it lasted, but evaporated, funwise and WYSI-wise, the moment I clicked “publish”. Too bad. Now it is just sheer determination that makes me bow to the necessity of posting twice in order to post two photos. Here it is, such a rare moment, for me, a newbie photographer. I was glad for the OPPORTUNITY when I had it and glad to share with those who care to look, now:

Hope you enjoy the shot.
I did.
Oh, and the link for Part 1 is here. It sort of explains this post. So sorry it has to be this way, evidently.
I was at one of my student’s hunter seat jumper competitions last week and again this week. I was desperately trying to shoot pictures of her and her horse jumping over the 3 foot jumps. Every time I shot either too soon or too late to capture the actual jump. I did get good at missing the jumps, though!
Oh, am so sorry. It is hard to catch a moving thing with still shots. We live and learn, don’t we! Thanks for stopping by and sharing this. 🙂
A beautiful shot indeed… We should never let opportunities pass us by.
Thanks! And thanks for stopping by and leaving such a kind comment! Also, thanks for subscribing! Hope you enjoy your stay!
