The NEDA (New England Dressage Association) Fall Festival is a large dressage competition that attracts international competitors and is a qualifier for a long list of other competitions.

 

Dawn is my wife's trainer. She is the owner and operator of Satori Farm in Rehoboth, Massachusetts, USA: www.facebook.com/Satori-Farm-Dawn-Zuchtmann-Dressage-Trai...

 

Graffic Nelson ("Nelson") is her beautiful 6 year old Oldenburg.

 

On a technical note, I was real happy to have the f/2.8 aperture for this late afternoon test under cloudy skies. This lens is indeed the bomb for horse photography!
