Ploughing Horses (1)

A pair of horses seen at this year's ploughing match on the Isle of Wight.
The match is mainly for tractors, both new and vintage, but the local equestrian centre brings the horses along to demonstrate how it used to be done.

Wow, I love the way these horses are all done up -- beautifully groomed, and what splendid tack. I'd like to see photos of the tractor match, too! What a great subject.
 
There are a couple of tractor images from last year's match on page two of my gallery. I didn't take too many of the tractors this year as I went specifically for the horses. I left too early last year and missed them.
