Can you stand another photo thread?

Postby WarHorse » Sun Mar 20, 2005 1:02 pm

Not trying to be obnoxious, I just like to share pix. ;)

When I was a track groom, I caught some interesting pix:

"Ten Feet in the Air"

This beautiful guy broke down in the far turn:

Mud!

And...the cemetary at Calumet one very frosty morning:

I agree we should start a new thread called pictures..those are great.

Beautiful shot of Calumet, War Horse. May I copy it for my desktop?

Yes you may, Mahubah. If it doesn't look right, let me know and I'll send a larger version. :)

The larger version would be much appreciated. What a lovely shot -- you ought to enter that in a photo contest.

I've thought about offering Tony a poster-size print for the office - for a price. ;)

I could do the contest thing someday, too...thanks for the idea.

Check your PMs. :)

Okay, WarHorse - you are driving me NUTS trying to figure out who you are. I saw you mention elsewhere that you thought you've met me, and I KNOW this photo above is from Fairmount - I see O'Brien & Brandenburg colors! Plus I see our crappy barn in the background of the second photo and am betting it was taken from somewhere around the trainer container..... please help me stop the insanity!!

Not to hijack your thread, but if folks want to see more photos, you can take a look at a photo thread I did over on All Breed - I was looking for pics of the highest jump and collected some nice shots of 7 foot puissance walls and stuff plus a link to a fantastic 1948 video of the chilean horse's record jump - all for your viewing pleasure if anyone is interested.

Scroll down to start finding the pics.

Cheers
