Thanks so much for all the camera suggestions! I ended up going with a Cannon and am still crying a bit over the price but I'm sure I'll feel better once I see all the amazing pictures I take when I'm at ROLEX! So excited to be going - first time. SuperMom and I leave on Wed after I catch a quick nap. We've got tickets for everything including the reining which I'm pretty excited to see. The farrier told me show jumping is sold out - his wife is riding! I'm excited/nervous for the shopping - I'm trying to make a list of things I need and things I want. The want stuff has to be on serious discount - this needs to be my mantra as I have some issues with impulse control ;). And lets face it, I don't really need anything but I am allowing myself to look for some brown open fronts and ankle boots. But that's it - I mean it...sigh...I'm in big trouble...
He needs stuff, right?
May or may not get a chance to update again but rest assured, I plan to take lots of pictures this week!
I'll be at Rolex too! Volunteering on Thursday and maybe Friday and then for fun on Saturday.
ReplyDeleteOohh! Let me know where you'll be and Mom and I will swing by to say hi.
DeleteHere is my email: equestrianathart at gmail dot com. Shoot me an email and we can figure something out maybe. I will be volunteering at the dressage arenas tomorrow (not sure exactly what I will be doing) and then I will definitely be up on Saturday. You will find me at the shopping throughout the day! ;)
DeleteHehe. Of course he needs stuff. :D
ReplyDeleteYou'll have so much fun, and will not regret your Canon purchase! In terms of deals, the best is on the first day at the Stubben tent - you can get some really nice leather products for 90% off if you dig hard enough. At those prices Charlie definitely needs stuff.
ReplyDeleteSweet! Thanks for the tip - I'm kinda, sorta on the look out for a bridle. Can't beat 90%!
DeleteWow ladies, enjoy yourselves at Rolex! I'm well jealous, I hope you have a great time shopping, viewing & of course photographing!
ReplyDeleteWhich canon did you go for in the end? I bought myself a canon last summer and haven't played with it in a while, will probably be picking your brain if it's the same/similar model to mine! :p
Thanks! I got the Ti4 based on a friend's recommendation. I may not be your best bet for questions yet but give me 6 months and I plan to be well-versed!
DeleteCongrats on Rolex, sounds like a blast!! And of course he needs some stuff, only the best horses do!
ReplyDeleteI know, right? And it's not like a pony get's this kind of opportunity everyday. :)
DeleteWahoo Rolex, looking forward to seeing your gorgeous pictures!
ReplyDeleteHoping I don't disappoint!
DeleteI want to go to Rolex!!!
ReplyDeleteI promise to let you live vicariously through me. ;)
DeleteHe definitely needs stuff :) You're going to have so much fun with your new camera too! The expense will pay off, those things last forever if you take care of them.
ReplyDeleteI hope so! I must tell you - your photos of WEF pushed me over the edge. If I manage to get one or two as nice as your WEF pics, I'll be a happy girl.
