Polo Teaser 3

I’m still working on my series of images taken from the polo tournament I attended a couple of weeks back. It has been a lot of fun editing the images down and I have arrived at about 19 that I want to keep to make a visual story. But I’m a bit stuck as to sequencing and whether all the images need to be included. So, I’ve decided to print them out and sort through them manually rather than digitally. There is just something magical when I can include the tactile element in my decision making process. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy this outtake photo. I had originally cropped it down to include only the two players attacking the ball, but I’m finding I’m liking this crop too.

I’ve made this and the other polo images available for sale because the players have expressed some interest. I’m aware the “buy buttons” can be a bit distracting and I do try to keep them off my blog. Instead I prefer to have them on my “Purchase” page but for ease of ordering by my “models” I’m making an exception here. Thank you for understanding.

I can’t wait to see the whole story, Brian. I also wouldn’t mind hearing about your editing process and how you made your choices for the final reveal. In the mean time, I’ll wait impatiently to see more…

Thanks Sabrina. I’m happy you’re excited to see the rest. I’m excited to reveal it finally but am still working through the process a bit. It has been quite fun, challenging, difficult, and introspective, and collaborative. I’ll have to write a blog post about it as I have lots of thoughts about it.
Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment. I always do appreciate it!

I do love what I have seen of this series Brian. I think you’ve caught the energy and excitement of the game beautifully. Have you done the RC submission as yet?

Hi Charlene,
Thanks so much! I did make the submission to RearCurtain last week and am waiting for publication. Hopefully this week!
