Colette's Team Dressage
at Willow Farm


Although today didn't quite go as I planned, I think the results were actually better than I was expecting. First, it soon became clear that not all riders were aware that I was only taking photos to order, so some of you were photographed anyway. I think it worked out for the best in the end when people realised how good today's offer was. Second, the lighting was far worse than I expected. Apart from the shift back to GMT and darker evenings, not all the arena lights were working. I really had to push my cameras sensitivity to the limit and time my shots to when you were in the best lit area (and on the right leg). This wasn't always possible so I took some more photos just to make sure you had some good ones. Since the original plan was cut down on the amount of pictures I had to take by only taking photos of those who specifically wanted them, I ended up taking far more than usual - 2,040 to be exact with each test having between 20 and 100 images. Either way, £10 for the lot (if you paid on the day - or order more than one test) is a BARGAIN!
To achieve this low price I couldn't possibly check every image let alone process them ALL for the website. So I've just uploaded one image of each test (without any adjustments or colour corrections) for identification purposes and those who order can have their whole set of pictures for the price of one. Once ordered, I'll batch process your images to achieve the best possible quality and zip them up in one - easy to download - file. Those who have pre-paid on the day, please e-mail me and I'll send you your download link tomorrow.
