The Dark Sides

Description

:bulletgreen: Riding can be a sport with succes but also fairness to horses. It CAN be. But way to often you see the opposite, like in this picture. I don't wanna blame the equistrian sports, but I don't want to close my eyes to the bad things that happen and so I want to present you this picture.

:bulletred: This rider is slowing down his horse in a really brutal way. In my eyes without any acceptable reason. The horse in this picture didn't run wild, the next obstacle was quite wide away and on the riders left. The only thing what happened was the horse knocking down the rail in the background.

:bulletred: I really was shocked when I saw the riders expression on the picture. It might be an unlucky shot, but the hate, self-aggrandisement, and satisfaction in the riders face is just unbelievable.

Thumbs down...

Personally I think you got a bad picture, the look on his face is like crap slow down, the bit is in the mouth for breaks and he is using them, it's a natural reaction I'm sure everyone does it no one means to be harsh on their horses, there is allot of money riding on these competitions it's their job.

As I said I just think you got a bad shot just like the paps get a shot of a celeb half blinking and say they are on drugs...
