Can Am





























My sister and I headed to London, Ontario on the 16th of March to attend a couple of days of the horse expo, Can Am, as we did last year.
We saw lots of old friends and made some new. I saw several people from Orillia there including Lori, Carol and Sarah as well as Carol and Todd. Also some past clients from the Meadows in Uxbridge, nice to see you all again!
Lots of the Paso Fino group were there and my photos were on display at the ECPFHA booth. The beautiful Paso Fino stallion, Cavalier QC from Ambleside was there representing this wonderful breed.
I also got a chance to meet the some of the people behind Equine Wellness Magazine and they were even giving away free copies of the latest issue with my photo of Monty on the cover (my second cover with this magazine!).
The Friday night Extravaganza was wonderful again and despite my backbreaking seat in the bleachers, I managed to take quite a few photos of it.
Well the only downside to the weekend was my back failing me, and the hellish night at the Hilton on their soft beds. Thanks to my sister for being my crutch and putting up with my whining and tears.

Your photography is beautiful : )
I, by accident, came across your portfolio on Flickr. I enjoyed looking at your equine photographs.
What kind of camera do you use?
I 'try' to take photos with my kodak easyshare.. ; )

Thanks Keri!Mostly I use my Canon Digital Rebel xt with a 70-200 mm lens but I also have a Kodak dx7590 when I don't want to lug all my other equipment around like on camping trips and to my kids' sports. Cameras, in my mind, are just an accesory. What you do with them, and your creativity is more important.

Hello there, I must concur with the earlier comment because your photography is indeed beautiful. You seem to capture the poetry of the moment. Horses are one of my passions and equestriancupid.com is a brilliant place to meet like minded people. Keep up the good work.
