Capturing the Challenge competitors showing their horsemanship is always a great thrill. A special effort this time to shoot the Stock Handling and Whip Crack - and there are literally some 'cracking photos' but the highlight for me was the Cross Country. The 'Water Obsctacle' was often spectacular as riders careered into the creek or flounced into a hidden 'plunge pool' that submerged many a horse and rider!
Favourite images include the Packhorse over hurdles and unexpected tricks in the Bareback Obstacle. However, for thrilling action - there is no better event in the Stock Horse World than the final of the Brumby Catch featuring a variety from runners and kickers to dodgers - testing the best stockmen in the 'Land of Oz!
See albums under High Country Events. View as a slide show too. Enjoy!
