Clicking the pics may or may not be worth the effort.

That pole bending rider looks like she'd take out a pole with her foot sticking out like that.

Not being a horse person myself, but being an observer of horse people, I've noticed that when the horse is galloping, they all ride that way with both legs sticking out like that. The barrel racers do it also, these top girl barrel racers have coaches to teach them how to do this sport, and I know this because sometimes the coach accompanies them to a race and yells at them while they're racing. So that method of riding must be normal because I've got lots of pictures of them riding that way.

That first photo is a keeper for sure. It's a portrait in action....Just great. May be as good as the one some years ago which was such a stunner.

Well, thank you so much, Judith; I remember that picture. The girl in this picture was one of several Indian girls that were barrel racing last weekend. I noticed that they didn't have any fancy tack for their horses, monogram saddles, and silver doodads on everything, but they sure could ride. They all looked like they were born on a horse and seemed as relaxed while riding, as me sitting in an easy chair.
