Poor Barbaro. At this moment he had no clue he would break down just minutes later.

This is a really beautiful capture. I love the focus on the horse and everything he was about. Truly beautiful.

This photo doesn't have enough comments! Shame about him, but we did see it coming.
Anyways, the perfect photo, as you know. Cropping, colors, horse, shadows. Everything. It's up on my journal.

Nice shoot Alysse. Emily handed the BH to me a few weeks ago and I was like "Oh wow! That's awesome!". I bet you are thrilled!

Yeah, Steve Haskin (if you read the BH then I'm sure you know his name) told me I really had to get it published so he told me who to send it to and I guess they liked it!

i'm not surprised they liked it! i was awestruck. i don't really READ BH, we just have it lying around... my boss apparently owns some percent of some tb's somewhere and their earnings are a small part of what keeps the farm running

this is one of the only shots of this animal i can look at w/o wanting to cry. u captured his integrity, great job.
btw...is there any news on him?

He's doing remarkably well. It looks like his cast will come off his right fore in a week. The left one (the laminitis foot) still has a long way to go, but it's getting healthy growth.

I think this is the best picture I've seen of the Preakness anywhere. You had your camera in the right spot at just the right time, Alysse! I'm sure you were tickled to death when you saw what you got! Excellent work. Awesome seat for the Preakness. I have to get down there one of these years...

Tickled didn't even begin to describe it! I was just like daaaamn. I technically didn't have a seat for the race. Actually, I wasn't even supposed to be where I was. Hehe!
In all honesty, the Preakness isn't that fun. It's all the alcohol that makes it worth going to. It's my big drunk fest of the year.

Poor Barbaro
