Inspiration

This is the FEI World Cup to be able to attend this and take pictures was unbelievable and an amazing experience! Riders came from all around the world to compete. It is the Olympics for Show Jumping. This images is of McLain Ward riding for the USA on his horse HH Azur. This was Mclain's seventeenth time to ride at the world finals but this was the first time he won it and was ranked number one in the World! This image was of him jumping the final jump!

Editing

Yes, I did do post processing, adding contrast and a boosting the saturation and details. I use Lightroom and Photoshop for all of my processing.

In my camera bag

Equipment I usually carry in my bag are my two cameras 5d Mark IV and 5d Mark V, 24-70 canon lens, 70-200 canon lens, and 100 mm macro lens.

Feedback

If you are wanting to capture images like this or any sports images the very first thing you need to know is the sport itself, so you are in the right place on the field at the right time to get the image that you want. In show jumping the owners of the horse and riders look for certain things in images the horse has to look its best and it has to be at certain times during the jump. And with all sports you have to always be ready to capture the action at any moment! The key to anything in life is just do it, keep taking pictures, keep following your dream we all make mistakes but the most important thing is learning from them and getting better every day. If at first you don't succeed try and try again!
