Back in the saddle

· 230 words · 2 minute read

First match of the season at Polo Escape today and a chance for me to refresh my pony following camera skills.

Photo taken with a Canon 1D and 300mm lens. However, the rider had just bought a GF1, so of course he gets preferential treatment with extra shots.

It was getting dark when I took this and the colours looked a bit shit (I expect there is a technical expression but I don’t know it). Black and White is more appealing.

Having been deprived of my “daily Pattaya dose” yesterday and so far today, feeiling just a little pissed off, I was about to reopen GJ’s debate as to whether Pattaya “Days” was in breach of the Trade Descriptions Act. Thankfully I checked back and you had four posts on the 29th and 2 on the 30th (or was it the other way round? - ED)

So, carry on, just bear in mind there are those who keep an eye on such things.

“Back in the saddle”. Oh no, not again! The polo season seems to come round more often than Spike’s birthday.

Indeed, Spike’s organ needs more golf and less polo ….
