Very interesting video 👍

[@michaelhawkins1173]

I enjoyed your video very much thank you. Race horses are turned out at there best and in full summer sun reflect like chrome to clip. For you is harsh light an advantage or do you prefer the day in your video ?

0:19 - I thought for a second that the jockey was Mike Smith ...
Am I correct ?

[@ClaudioDesideriFilms]

Mike Smith the TH-camr/Photographer? 😂😂😂

[@nickfanzo]

In other words, hold the shutter, spray and pray 24,000 pictures a second. And then hopefully find a good one later 😂

I thought the same as she machine gunned that camera. 📸

Easy to say when it's not your job of course. There's 30-35 minutes between races MAX, so in that time she has to ensure she has photos of all the horses in a race (which could be 4, it could be 24) and photos of the winner, edited and sent off, all while thinking about the next race and moving about the course virtually non-stop. There just isn't time to stop and think too hard about getting the right one or 2 shots in a fast paced sport, unless you're shooting for yourself as a hobby. Comments like yours just look to diminish the hard work these professionals put in.
