🌤️ What a weekend! Aside from a brief bit of hail yesterday morning, the sun was out in force!

✨ A massive thank you to the committee, judges, course designers, pole pickers, writers and everyone who put on an epic Wairarapa A & P!

📸 Photos from Saturday Ring 1 have been uploaded, along with the pony 50 & 60cm, and the hack 60 & 70cm from Ring 2. The rest of the Ring 2 photos will be up by tomorrow evening.

🌸 Sunday's photos should also start going up tomorrow. The only class I missed was Ring 1 Horse Mini Prix from Saturday.

And all photos from Dressage Central Districts are now loaded on my website! Thank you all for your patience, and thank you to DCD for having me!

I look forward to the next Dressage event I attend, in the meantime it's Show Jumping at the end of the month for me!

Good luck all and I'll see you at the next one 📸

I'm signing off for the night! All photographs of riders 224761 through to 288913 are now loaded! Riders 289513 through to 300292 will be loaded by end of Friday!

That's nearly 2,000 photos sorted, edited and loaded... and only another 1,500 to go ;🫣

On the positive side it will go quicker now, with the remaining photos having been sorted into rider albums, and just the final edits to be made.

Thank you to everyone for your patience and support, remind me not to take 15,000 photos at the next Dressage Show I attend! (Yes that truly is how many I walked away with.., my cold hands got trigger happy)

And the Saturday morning photos are now LIVE! 🥳

Find your photos here: https://stirrupandstone.shootproof.com/DCDKARPLS26

📸 I'll do a post when the Saturday afternoon photos (and sunny Sunday) images are live!

Have a great evening all, and thank you for your support ✨

Well evening turned into morning and then afternoon, and now evening.. 🫣but over 1000 photos from Saturday morning are now uploading! My website is having a little bit of a moment loading the images, so thank you for your patience! They will be finished uploading by 8pm!

Saturday afternoon and Sunday are still to come!

Thank you for your patience, I'm now off to get ready for a night shift 😅

Saturday afternoon photos should be loaded tomorrow night/Wednesday morning.

04/10/2026

💤 I severely underestimated the amount of photos I took!

Saturday morning's photos will go live Monday morning instead, and I'll work to get the Sunday afternoon and Sunday morning images uploaded Tuesday/Wednesday but will keep everyone updated!

Have a good night everyone, and well done! 😴

🥶 I was told it's not a competition at Manfeild if it doesn't rain on one day! I know I was glad to see the sun today, even if it was a bit chilly! I'm pretty sure my fingers froze on the shutter given how many photos I have to sort! 🙈

✨ Well done everyone for braving the weather at Dressage Central Districts; riders, horses, judges, supporters and especially to the committee and volunteers. I imagine everyone has a bit of washing to do, so hopefully we have some fine weather now to dry everything (and everyone) out!

📸 My goal is to have all of the first half of yesterdays photos up tonight. A reminder you can register to be notified when the gallery is live through the link in the comments! 👇

01/10/2026

✨ Going to Dressage Central Districts at Manfeild this weekend? I'll see you there!

Link to preregister to be the first to know when photos start going live is in the comments 👇

📸 Let me know if there is any particular photographs you're wanting. Whether it be more black and white, getting ready in the yards, the squad cheering you on from the sidelines and in the warm up. I'll be there to capture the action and will be visible in my pink high vis vest!
