This page contains links to photographic albums connected to Equine subjects. Horse Racing being the main one, the bulk of which were taken at Kelso and Perth Racecourses. Other race courses are included as are the yards of some  racehorse Trainers. Albums of various other competitive sports involving horses are also available, such as; Showjumping, Carriage Driving and Polo.

For technical reasons the Photographic Albums for Kelso and Perth Racecourses are on www.PennyPictures.com.

Perhaps my interest in horse racing photography was sparked when I had success in a Scottish Sports photographic competition back in the 1990s. The image was of a race horse at rearing up at Perth Racecourse, since then I have always taken my camera to race meetings.

Although my racing images have been very popular I have never sought to gain access to areas where better images could be received. All the images are taken from the areas where the public is allowed access. This interest in racing has resulted in me owning shares in various race horses and as a result I have had access to racing yards, photographs from these visits are included in this website. I have had several approaches by artists to use my images as a basis for their work. One such collaboration is detailed in a link above. Having success with my racing images I have branched out and covered other events where horses are involved. Point To Point is another aspect of horseracing worth photographing. These are mainly in Fife and the Scottish Borders. Although very similar in style to professional Horse Racing it is an amateur sport. More freedom as a spectator is allowed at these events and as such there is more scope for taking images with a different perspective at these racing courses. Other competitive horse events such as Polo, Show Jumping and Carriage Driving all require different approaches and are all challenging in their own way. Jousting events are always worth photographing, they are colourful and spectacular with a mixture of entertainment and sport. These have been mainly photographed at The Bruce Festival in Dunfermline. Access to the images can be achieved by clicking on the above icons.
