There are some moments in Horseball where the adrenaline rush is so much that you can't figure out who gets more into the game... the riders or the horses!
Just look at the eye on the horse to the right... He's in a complete "I'm going to get you" mode!
Luisa thanks so much for these last three posts on Horseball, I seem to remember somewhere seeing this before but for some reason I had a picture of horses with a huge rubber ball rolling around on the ground LOL.
This looks like a lot of fun and I don't think I would be able to pull these types of moves off at my age but I would love to watch in in person.

"Sometimes what seems like surrender isn't surrender at all. It's about what's going on in our hearts. About seeing clearly the way life is and accepting it and being true to it, whatever the pain, because the pain of not being true to it is far, far greater." (Tom Booker, in "The Horse Whisperer" movie)

"It takes a lot of imagination to be a good photographer. You need less imagination to be a painter, because you can invent things. But in photography everything is so ordinary; it takes a lot of looking before you see the ordinary." -- David Bailey
Twelve significant photographs in any one year is a good crop. - Ansel Adams
