Caroline Martin and Danger Mouse. Photo by Leslie Threlkeld.
Normally, I try to move around a course when I’m photographing, but this Advanced corner at the Stable View Oktoberfest Advanced Horse Trial was so impressive I could not persuade my feet to move to another fence. Caroline Martin’s 9-year-old Warmblood is one of my favorite jumping horses. Can you see why?! Wee!

Monday News and Notes:
Champions are being crowned all over the country since the 2017 Area Championships got under way this summer. The USEA has a roundup of the latest winners. [Area Championships Round Up, Part 1]
Temperatures have definitely begun dropping. It’s time to clip the woollies off the horses and dig out and wash up blankets. Horses are naturally well equipped to handle the cold, but they aren’t impervious to frostbite. [Formidable Frostbite]
The situation in Puerto Rico is bleak in the wake of Hurricane Maria, as the island remains without power or running water. Gasoline, food and other resources are running out. There are many people and animals to help. Numerous charities are stepping up to help equines that have been affected by the disaster. [Charities rally to help]
