This one's from Tampa Bay Downs (from today, in fact, lol!). This is a horse named Trippindowndahiway who was being hosed down in the winner's circle, fresh off a blistering six furlong sprint. What I love about this pic is how well it shows the incredible exertion these animals put themselves through while racing - every blood vessel distended under his skin like a roadmap, and the wide, wild eyes as well. They are amazing athletes.  |

That was the first thing I notice was the horse's spooked eyes, but after I read your post I scrolled down and.... holy sh*t those veins!!! Nice photo Pisces:)

That's a beautiful horse. I never know whether to hate racing or not though, i know the horses are treated like royalty at the stables, but when they're on the track and the jockey's are just whipping them constantly i just can't watch. And then of course the dangers of them falling and breaking a leg.  Did anyone else hear about the two horses who died at some race meeting when there was a leakage of electricity under ground or something? It showed them being led around the parade ring and then suddenly the two of them went mad rearing and jumping and one of them fell over. They think it was because of their shoes....anyway they both died.  |

I'd hesitate to call this one "photography", but I thought it was funny. It's my kitty Cassini, just after I put his little top hat on his head. I snapped the pic right as he was knocking it off, and it ended up looking like he was tipping his hat! LOL!!  |

Aaaw Pisces your kitty is adorable! I have the less fluffy version of him, LOL So... I take pics of random things, usually it's my pets... This was some random mess in my room and I realized it looked like something had 'happened' and I just had to snap it... I'd call it 'Last Night'  My 21st birthday cake...  It pains me that I forgot the name of this big shopping mall in Dublin I visited on my school trip there in 2008...  |
