This is one of the many shots I took over a 3 day horse breaking school.
They start in a round yard by having the horse running around the yard, then as the horse starts to understand that they are in no danger the horse stops and sniffs the ground and looks at the trainer, the trainer backs off and walks backwards and after a while they walk up to the horse and put a rope around the neck.
Then after some lunging in the round yard they put a halter on the horse and pat the horse all over, so the horse can start to relax.
Next comes the saddle and this is one of those images.Some didnt mind others did. The course was amazing, with care and patience taken with the horses, at no stage was there any hitting or miss care taken, it is a new way of breaking and I approved of the way it was done, as I am very apposed to cruelty.

Magnificent in more ways than one! It nice to see how it is done now 🙂
Thank you,I have seen horses broken in before but this was amazing as in one day they were on the horses backs, the second day they had a bridle on them and the 3rd day they were riding them with a little control and some could stand up on the horses backs. It was nice to see the kindness and patience given to the horses.
cheers Callie
Great image really capturing the action. I am glad to hear that there is a nicer way to break horses in and that the animals emotions and well being are being taken into consideration.
thanks, yes it was lovely to see kindness to the horses, they were on there backs the first day which is incredible.thank goodness times have changed.
cheers callie

Wonderful image-I think the b/w makes it even more powerful-
Thank you too for stopping by Move the Chair-I appreciate you taking the time to look-
Thank you so much,yes I was lucky to capture the horse rearing up, the wife of the man is buying that for her husband, but probably do it in colour.
cheers
