here are a couple shoots from cross contry last mounth
Personally I don't like the crops either, I want to see what the horse is jumping over in the first two as it doesn't look like a standard fence. 3 and 4 look the rider is ducking to stay within the frame....more so on 3
i dont know how much you know about the equine world or cross country jumping but those riders are not ducking they are infact riding properly as they have the corect position over the jump to suport the horse in the best way posible
as for the background thank you i will work on that.
i would like to point out these are from a show hence the backgrounds, as for 3 n 4 being early i would like more of your opinion if possible to those as both of those were clients favorite photos from the day, i am very experienced with equine photography and those shots always are more liked by clients then any others

I would disagree with this their positions are not correct they aren't folding from the hips but leaning forward especially the rider with the purple hat silk.i dont know how much you know about the equine world or cross country jumping but those riders are not ducking they are infact riding properly as they have the corect position over the jump to suport the horse in the best way posible
