I like getting the opportunity to shoot for a variety of clients and subjects.  I think it makes a well-rounded photographer with the experience to handle any situation.  Want some killer bridal portraits on a speeding motorcycle?  No problem.

I saw my first polo match. The riding was very impressive, as there are a lot of quick transitions. And the riders control the horse with only one hand, since the other holds the mallet.

A polo field is 300 yards long, so the horses can really get moving.
