Walter, this is one of the best photos of a horse race I've ever seen .... perfect timing to get them all airborne in a split second. The details are amazing .... big vote

Excellent racing image not easy to get a shot with all hooves off the ground as you did . Love the location at which you captured this amazing photograph. Nice sharp work . Vote

well done Walter...most fascinating though is the lead horse and it's straining muscles...that really brings home the tension and effort..

Looks like the favourite is out front. A good way to stay out of trouble. V

Great action shot. Muybridge is smiling down at you. (Or maybe up. He did murder his wife's lover.)
