Serendipity

A rainy Saturday morning at the barn, and out of the blue, a relative of the stable owners asked me to take pictures of his grandson riding one of the horses.

I say out of the blue because I never met the man before, but somehow he thought I was a photographer.

I walked by the arena with a big folding chair and I guess he thought that was a tripod. The next thing I know, I am getting a request for a photo shoot right then and there.

Fortunately, I had my big camera with me.

The horses are absolutely beautiful.

I enjoyed our impromptu little photo shoot.

    Hi Shirley!
    those are excellent photos of the rider and the two awesome horses. We have 4 horses and ride them often.

    a photo shoot, how neat to be asked.

    The best to you this week!

    What a blessing to have you there! On a horse note - I find it "funny" that most girls ride English and most guys ride Western...
