Lynda's Picture Perfect: Wares

Picture Perfect ~ "WARES" 

 

My time has been really short lately and didn't think I would enter this week but as I closed out my email and the internet and about to turn off the computer this photo is right in front of me on my desk top --- so I went to the online dictionary to see if it fit --- I think it does, even if sort of out of the box thinking.

Lynda's "YesterYear" for Picture Perfect

Picture Perfect "YesterYear" Theme 

I had an idea of what I wanted as soon as I saw the theme because I was going to a  Ranch Horse Association of America sanctioned show sponsored by West Texas A&M University Stock Horse Team.  We help sponsor this club at the local college, plus I was invited to photograph the event if I wished.  I was even given permission to bring the Navigator into the no parking area next to the arena fence since it is difficult for me to tote everything I needed.  I felt like a real photographer!  

Everything was going great until after a break I was walking back to my photo taking spot and tripped and fell forward.   After I got up I realized I had pulled the muscle even more that I had injured 2 weeks ago when I got bucked off Diamond.  It was not an easy task getting me into the Navigator so Russ could drive me home and then he return the friend that helped me.  It was a bad night but a better today.  At least I can walk some and sit some, last night I couldn't.  Enough of my troubles.  Now for my entry for YesterYear.

On the whole I was real pleased with my many photos from yesterday.  Disappointed I had to leave before my friend Dywan showed and mad that was I careless and tripped and re-injured myself.

Lynda's Picture Perfect "Discovery" Theme

Picture Perfect "Discovery" Theme

I often wonder what the horses are thinking --- and they do think.  I have seen it over and over.  This photo was taken this week.  Sometimes we re-do or add to our obstacle training course for the horses.  This spring I used the tractor and dug a small shallow ditch that we can fill with water.  The dirt was piled on the north side for a small embankment.  Little Joe was showing his stubborn side but yet curious side as he discovers this new obstacle.  And yes, I finally convinced Little Joe to get his feet wet!  
But he still needs more practice.
