EQUESTRIAN SPORTS AND SPECIAL EVENTS PHOTOGRAPHY IN A PHOTOJOURNALISTIC STYLE
" Those who bring sunshine into the lives of others cannot keep
it from themselves. "
- James Mathew Barrie (1860-1937), Scottish author and dramatist
The photograph at right was taken at the North American Police Equestrian Championships,
during a comic relief moment provided by a member of the Pennsylvania State Police and his
equine partner, Charlie Brown. While attracting a lot of attention,
" Trooper " Charlie Brown displayed considerable patience, an important quality
in a good police horse.
