Carrowniskey Races — Straight at the Camera

Sand in the air. Sheepskin noseband. Green stars on the silks. A line of horses coming straight into the lens, the hill and the houses of the coast running out behind them.

This is the one that feels like you might get knocked over. Close enough to see the bit, the glove, the set of the jaw. The going looks heavy because it is heavy — it is a beach.

Photographed from the ground up on Carrowniskey Strand.

Fine art print from €55. Archival paper, pigment inks, shipped from Ireland to the USA and worldwide.
