It is a terrific "Action" capture Mark


 

1/8000,wow

What would you think could have been the slowest safe SS for good sharp focus

Thanks Brain


the rule of thumb is the reciprocal of the focal length so that would be 1/145th of a second.

Really? 

That slow would have frozen the action in the manner you've done here?

I think the horse is being "pushed" more so ... please don't take my comment re rider personally ... just an observation, does not take from the shot at all
