World Cup Day 4 (and Zenyatta)
Jun. 15th, 2010 12:33 amFirst off, thanks to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ctbn60 for sprucing up my Zenyatta icon, in honour of her historic win yesterday. It's based on a pic I took at the 2008 Breeders Cup, after her win in the Ladies Classic. I was just leaving and saw a professional photographer waiting along a path with equipment at the ready. He advised me that Zenyatta would be passing by any second now, and sure enough, there she was. As you can see, she was still full of energy and fire even after spread eagling the field.
I love the picture because it gives a great view of Zenyatta's very elegant head. Alas, its not well framed and her groom has his tongue sticking out, so it doesn't exactly wind up in the photography hall of fame! Many thanks to ctbn60 for editting out the distracting bits.
