“I was very drawn to this photo throughout the judging. It is beautifully done, very realistic and just fun to look at. This looks like a mare that would be great to watch in real life. A beautiful, stand-out photo in a division that had many. I love it.”

Kodak Moment
Owned by Mary Ann Dalton
“I love this horse. He is exactly what a real pleasure TWH horse should look like – no artificial big lick, chains or pads. The model is beautiful with crisp edges to his pattern, nice shading and no discernable breaks. The photo itself is clear, centered and in focus. Kudos to his owner on such a lovely entry!”

“I absolutely fell in love with this filly the minute I saw the picture. The expression on her face is adorable. The color, shading and spots are amazing. This was a really tough division to judge as there were so many that I wanted to chose but this little filly took my heart. Thank you all for letting me judge this show.”

Spot Me At The Lindy Hop
Owned by Charlotte Martin
“This entry placed 4th in it’s class because of a few small details such as tack adjustment, and description information (the owner can contact me for specifics if they want), but I selected this as my judges choice for several reasons:
Clever ‘other performance’ entry; something a little different. I like to see that a competitor is using their imagination and their knowledge of horses. I know many people don’t have access to real horses, lessons, or trainers, but reading horse books, magazines and of course using online resources for research can help make your entries interesting and realistic.
Realistic looking, in-scale background. I particularly think the pine trees outside the fence were very well placed. Notice that they add depth to the scene (imagine them not being there, and you can see the image is much ‘flatter’ in appearance) but are placed mostly in front of and behind the model so as not to draw our eye away from the horse and rider (for example, imagine if the tip of one tree were placed between the horse’s mane and the rider doll’s hand).
Lovely lighting on the set-up; this allows the judge to clearly see and evaluate the tack/prop adjustment, and also creates a nice overall ‘artistic feel to the image.”

Rusty Banjo
Owned by Edna Clark
“This is a stunning photo and a great example of the strive for realism. I love the color in the fence and how much it matches the tack and rider’s apparel. The tack is beautiful and the color compliments him very nicely. Most of all, I love the light and the clarity of the photo. Extremely well done! I’d like to see those back feet a little less covered by sand, but still a stunning photo and my overall choice.”
