Just Me and My Lens: A Day at the Races

This past weekend we celebrated Missy's birthday at the Hastings Racetrack. The whole crew showed up including my nieces and nephew all of whom were enjoying their very first track experience. The sun was shining, the crowd was energized, and it was an amazing day had by all.

For me horse racing is less about the competition or making a smart bet and is more about the actual animals themselves. As a former equestrian I miss being around horses every day. When you spend every Saturday of your childhood driving out to the stables, tacking up, and spending hours on end with your horse it is hard to not feel a kinship with these gorgeous animals.
