So when John introduces a great new idea for a reader series on Eventing Nation, his thoughts immediately after turn to finding someone else to manage and write the series for him! In this case, I am that someone. We will do our best to post a picture and caption every week towards the end of the week. If one thing is for sure, this sport of ours takes us to a lot of very different, beautiful places. I am looking forward to seeing all the cool places that the EN community is lucky to experience.
Our first photo, from Stacey, is taken of a beautiful Napa Valley vineyard. Thanks Stacey for submitting, and thank you for reading.
“My name is Stacey, I am a sophomore in college and have been addicted to horses since age 4 and eventing since age 12 (I’m a huge fan of eventingnation). Recently I was on vacation in Napa Valley, CA where I was afforded the opportunity to take a lovely trail ride on a really sweet standardbred through an incredible vineyard. It was so beautiful!”
Also, a recap of the guidelines John mentioned a couple weeks ago:
– We are looking for pictures of good resolution, cell phone pictures are fine as long as they are set on maximum resolution.
– The picture must contain both of your horse’s ears, but the subject material is totally up to you. It could be the scenery on a hack, your barn, etc.
– Write a short paragraph introducing yourself, the horse that you are sitting on, and what the picture is of/why you chose to take it.
– Send your picture and paragraph to [email protected] with “View from my horse” in the subject line. All the pictures that people originally sent to [email protected] have been forwarded to me, and they are in line to be published.
