Great action shot, good DOF and at f4! Amazing how close the horses are.. is there room for the rider's legs? Great shot ~ Bob

Thanks for the comments folks. Sorry for using a Nikon Lonnit but the 200-400 is just such a good lens, especially for polo and it won't fit on a Canon. (Well to be fair I know I could get an adaptor but I don't think my skills would cope with the loss of autofocus)

Man are they packed together! Somewhere in there are two entire horse bodies and heads? I keep counting hooves and coming short! LOL! Nice shot, I mean, considering it's a Nikon and all. ;) ~ Lonnit
