Okay, i have compiled a whole bunch of shots from the last year and 1/2 or so. Most of the pictures are of the bay pony i leased last year. You may have seen them already so dont feel the need to critique them. The 2nd set of photos will be of the horse that i am currently leasing, going in order of the show year. Please comment on them, preferably the later few.
I really feel that i have improved on the horse. Together, we are more relaxed, he collects and listens. In the beginning, look at his jump - he was nervous and we were running all over the place. The later photos he is barely jumping the jumps, instead cantering them, relaxed, happy AND listening! He was really strong too but now i feel like its a two way road - i ask, he responds, i respond. I have an idea of what i should be doing, but id like to hear from you first.
