can’t wait till it runs! * and it did! here: ARTICLE IN NY DAILY NEWS * here’s some of the shots. it’s for an article on Mine that Bird ( the horse that ran the Derby and won with 50-1 or so odds).
not a whole lot more going on when i was there, unfortunately, but i hope i made the best of it. at the very least, it’s something  i definitely would not have had a chance to shoot if not working in Farmington.
