And all the nice pictures to go along with the (hilarious) Fail! one.

Warming up

"OMG IT'S A POLE!"

Corner, which was a lot larger but I wanted it shrunk as they scare me since I jumped one without my horse a few years ago.

More jumpies

If you look closely, I have my eyes shut!

An improvement on fail....

And a final line, which was two strides horse length. Tally can't do horse strides, so this tends to happen.

hey thats not bad for a fail pic. A bit weird but really not that bad

I know next to nothing about jumping. But you're still on the horse! That's a win in my book.

Wow, what a gorgeous horse.. *drools* He's actually a very good jumper, although the fail picture did make me giggle.

I think you guys look amazing though, what a great match!

Same here!!! Your horse is beautiful!!

I'm with oldhorse, you are still on, that has to count for something.

Pretty pretty horse.

Fiona McLeod · 11-05-2009, 05:54 AM

Oh it felt pretty fail! Kudos to Tally for actually jumping, I put him on totally the wrong stride. Plus I look a bit like a duck

Awkward jumps make for the best pictures hehe.

You two are quite the pair!!

Yeah...what they said.

I really admire jumping and have always wanted to do it so I think you look great. Your horse is gorgeous by the way.

Our Barn Manager was working with her little Arabian on a lunge line in the arena yesterday over little jumps to teach her. I would love to do that!

I'll chime in with the rest of them that know nothing about jumping but think you and your horse look fabulous. How very handsome he is and, although your position might not be what you were striving for, you look pretty good to me.

Don't be so hard on yourself, OK?
