For those who were asking fo9r driving photos a little while back, i thought i would share some gratuitous photos of my pony

Harry has been broken to harness for eactly 11 weeks yesterday (god it seems like so much longer than that) and on Friday i actually taught someone to use my DSLR to get some photos of us, the only glimpse ive had of us are in house windows through the village LOL

We have moved to a wonderful new yard and he settled in straight away, the school is a perfect size for us and, having had a week off to settle in, i thought we would go for a spin in there.......

I was very pleased with these photos and cant stop looking at them, he isnt the weedy thing he was anymore and he really does love his work.
But constructive critique is most welcome as i am a novice driver and broke him in myself


First off is my fave one of me and my boy

Massive Well Done. He looks amazing. Great photos. I cant critisize as I know nothing about driving but would love to give it a go with my sec D baby.
Oooh quite envious now and not far from Northampton so beware :D
 
gorgeous!!!! the only thing i can see is that his blinkers look a bit too close to his eyes and maybe blocking too much side vision if that makes sense? he looks very smart by the way!
 
Looking like you have him going well so far, tho dont be tempted to use 3rd gear too much at present :)
Agree with the angle the camera had caught the winkers - poss a little close at the top - and be careful not to get into bad habits too early on with your hands & holding the reins correctly - and also to hold at height where they are not going to be kissing his rear.
Well done - looks a lovely chap :)
