Description
My submission for *EintoeRn 's "Three in Three" triptych game, which challenges the participant to take three photographs within three minutes and combine them into a triptych.In sports photo it's easy to pull three photos from the same three minutes.
I'll go out and create something fresh with this idea specifically in mind too if I can. GO DO IT: [link]

I love this! How did you get into racing photography?

I've been around horse tracks since I was a child. Interestingly enough, the first time I ever picked up a semi-serious camera to take semi-serious photos was the during the 2010 Kentucky Derby. I hated photography, but I'd be damned if I didn't at least try to take decent photos during something as significant as the DERBY. It was then that, while I sucked a landscapes and abstract and everything else, I discovered I was good at capturing fast moving athletes. This was what I knew so, of course, this was what I should have been doing all along. You know what they say, do-what-you-love/do-what-you-know. 
As to how I got into-it this summer? Hmmm, honestly, just research and networking. I make sure I know the jockeys, the trainers, the owners, the racing secretaries, everybody. The same way I do around an ice rink when I'm photographing hockey or speed skating. Knowledge is power and friends open doors.
