    Lost Hounds Horse Trial

    Very large turnout for this horse trial which was really nice to see.  Over 160 entries total.   But both Saturday and Sunday felt like the August trial instead of the June one.  Hot and rather humid.  Saturday had a nice breeze at least, Sunday not so much perhaps and it was more humid than Saturday.  But got some really nice pictures I think.  Didn't stay for much of the stadium jumping though because it was so hot and i was tired from running around a field all morning setting up my camera at different fences.   Still trying to get the hang of some of the features on it though.  For some reason some of the photos came out slightly burred, even though the background actually wasn't blurred, just the horse and rider were.   Lot of the images came out great though and i'm quite pleased with them for the most part.  Tried to keep more accurate track of horses and riders, but due to a small error somewhere I got a bit confused in the middle of my photo taking and so some of the images i'm not totally sure of rider or horse names.  But those I am sure of I'll be updating with names as soon as I cross reference them with the program I have.  Next weekend is Grand River Hunt mini trial.  I'm debating going but may hold off and just wait for the full horse trial at South Farm in 2 weeks time.
