Galloping down the final stretch of track, this horse, named 'Run Away and Hide', although not touching the ground at the moment, eventually landed and went on to win this race at the Festival in the Field. It was my first time at a horse racetrack, and this one was a biggie: Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky, USA, site of the Kentucky Derby, an insanely popular thoroughbred horse race. They held a race every half hour or so. This was race 8 of 10. When it was over, I popped over to the infield to see if I could snag a shot of Kellie Pickler, who was performing, which I did and which I'll post soon.
Oof, I just realized how much sun I'd actually gotten today. (While brushing my teeth, I glanced in the mirror.) I hope all the red fades to a sexy tan. Sigh. That makes me all the more exhausted. Time for bed. (Nikon D300, 135mm, f/5.6, 1/400, ISO 200, cropped)
