These are some of my favorite photos from The Country Classic Preview and The Country Classic horse shows held at Hunter Creek Farm in Wilsonville, Oregon. I enjoy the challenge of capturing the action in the ring as well as illustrating behind-the-scenes activity at the shows.

| Higher jumper fences mean more "air time." |
 |
| The details: elevator bit, spurs, flying stirrup leather.... |
 |
| Whee! |
 |
| Happy junior hunter. This it what it's all about. |
 |
| Neatly braided and waiting patiently. |
 |
| Arsenal. |
 |
| Schooling chaps and riding crop. |
 |
| One last polish. |
 |
| Field boots and red tack trunk. |
 |
| Making a new friend. (Note the tight grip on Mom.) |
 |
| Pony hunter triple combination jump. |
 |
| Final fence. |
 |
| Who needs a horse? |
 |
| Where's my treat? |
 |
| Final instructions after a disappointing first round. |
 |
| Determination. |
 |
| Excused from the ring after naughty pony refused to jump. |
 |
| Good luck wishes from the trainer. |
 |
| Ready for the trailer ride home. |
