Carrera de Cintas a Caballo, Fuente de Piedra

Drinks on a Horse, 2011

White Horses, 2011

It took a while to get around to scanning these negatives.  These were shot at the Carrera de Cintas a Caballo in Fuente de Piedra, Malaga, in 2011.  The purpose of the race is to capture a ring that has been suspended in the air on a small wooden stick, all while riding full speed on a horse.  In Fuente, some of the riders were also intoxicated.  And they ride on pavement.  Without a helmet.  I recall shooting more film that day, so there are possibly more shots to be posted at a later date.

All were shot with a Rolleicord medium format TLR, using Ilford Delta 100 film.  Thanks for visiting.  Please feel free to leave comments, questions or horse stories in the space provided.
