I spent a week at the Rockin' R ranch for a family reunion and had a great time with my new camera during the early morning horse round-up. These were some of my favorites. C/C always appreciated!

Thanks Miriam. The biggest challenge for me was getting the angle I wanted without getting run down, or spooking the horses into stopping their run.

Great action shots with the splashing water. They're beautiful - the pictures and the horses.

Thank you! I shoot with a Nikon D600. My two lenses right now are the Nikon 24-70mm f2.8 and the Nikon 70-200mm f4. I usually have a CP filter on. For these, I was using my 70-200mm because I wanted to keep my distance from the frey. ISO 800, 70mm, F6.3, but I changed those settings as lighting conditions changed as the sun came up. I would usually take a couple of test shots to make sure I had the lighting right, and then just laid in ambush.
