💡 TUESDAY TIPS 💡
Photographing XC courses!

🐴📸

As an event photographer, a big decision we have to make whilst covering an event is choosing which jumps to photograph on cross country. After all, with sometimes in excess of 100 horses in each class and leaving the start box every 2 minutes, discovering part way through that your jump isn’t photographing well is a tricky situation to be in!

Ask any competitor and they’ll say they want a photo over the biggest jump! Sometimes we look at a XC course, and there is a ‘stand out fence’; one that’s solid, up to height, visually pleasing, in good light and against a nice backdrop. Often however, it’s not as straight forward as that and these are some of the factors we have to consider;

📸 Lighting 📸
Ideally you want the sun behind you, shining onto the horse and fence to capture them at their best, with a blue sky and good colours. I have on occasion had to break this rule! With some classes running almost all day, the light can change, and if it's jumping well and otherwise makes a good photo, then this is sometimes a compromise we make!

📸 Fence numbering 📸
We always have 3 photographers on XC and it’s usually a good idea, particularly at the lower levels, to have a photographer early on. If there’s a fence on course that is notorious for catching riders out, then it’s a good idea to have one of your photographers before this point to try and capture all of the competitors on course. We are then able to position the other 2 photographers at more challenging points around the course.

📸 Background 📸
I always try to keep the backgrounds clear. Nobody wants a photo on their mantlepiece with a portaloo in the background. Occasionally, fence judges cars are unavoidable but most fence judges are on side and are happy to move to avoid being in the photos. We are absolutely spoilt for backgrounds at Broadway as demonstrated here!

📸 Positioning 📸
Sometimes there are fences we’d just love to photograph but that you p

We are so grateful to be partnering with Bourton Vale Equine Clinic for The National UA & SEG Eventing series championship 2023

Delighted to also have in attendance one of the BVEC vets at Horse Events ODE’s ensuring immediate response should you need.

Bourton Vale Equine Clinic have a large number of clients who compete at all levels from low levels up to Olympians in a variety of equestrian disciplines including eventing, show jumping, dressage, showing, driving and endurance.

They understand the workload and physical demands in relation to competitive equine sports, working alongside horse, rider and owner to maintain and maximise the optimum health and performance of the horse.

With this in mind BVEC can deliver a diagnosis and evidence based treatment and prognosis for horses on site and if necessary at the clinic.

With mobile diagnostic equipment at hand and with the facilities at the clinic, we can use analgesics (nerve blocks), mobile digital radiography and ultrasonography. Where more advanced diagnostics are required for more complex or high-value cases, we are able to perform nuclear scintigraphy (bone scan) and MRI imaging to pinpoint the exact causes of the majority of poor performance issues. Airway disease and equine gastric ulcer syndrome (EGUS) are other causes of reduced performance, and we can perform endoscopic examinations at yards.

With an expert professional team at BVEC they offer practical cost effective diagnostic and treatment for all horses and ponies:
✔️Racehorse
✔️Stud and reproduction
✔️Sport horses and ponies
✔️Leisure Horses

❗️ An important reminder regarding copyright ❗️

In recent weeks, I’ve received reports of people screenshotting images from our website and posting on social media. This is even with our watermark over them and ‘DO NOT COPY’ plastered over them.
🤷‍♀️

I always aim to educate rather than punish, but when you’re then blocked by the offenders, it makes it quite difficult to send a polite message(!)
Unfortunately in these cases, we will have no choice but to no longer photograph persistent offenders.

Myself and my photographer’s work incredibly long hours in literally all weathers to cover the events we do and have them available online as quickly as possible. And luckily the majority make it worthwhile for us. But it is incredibly insulting when you then see watermarked images on social media.

We try and set our pricing as competitively as possible, whilst also taking into account that out of each and every sale, there is a percentage of VAT, tax and card fees to pay, whilst also paying our photographers, venues, website provider, insurance, fuel plus all of the ongoing supplies and initial outlay for kit.

❌ Regardless of pricing, it really is quite simple. If you like them enough to post, pay for them. If you don’t like them enough to pay for, don’t post them. ❌

_____

Thankfully Instagram and Facebook are swift at removing photos that we report and side with the content owner ie photographer. So please do help us by letting us know when you see it!

Huge thank you as always to those who already do send us screenshots of the offenders. I ALWAYS keep it anonymous.

And especially to those who call people out for it publicly on social media - a comment on a post can go a long way towards combating the problem.
It really is a case of copyright law, not just us photographer's having strong opinions or being busybodies!

And thank you as always to those who do support us in purchasing photos that you like/use, luckily you FAR FAR outweigh the minority. 🖤
