“MUCH like jumping a fence, capturing the perfect photo is all about timing.” This is coming from someone who knows.

Equestrian photographer Laurence Dunne has been a constant feature of the Irish shows landscape for the past 15 years and during that time, he estimates that he has taken over two million photos. “I’ve been around horses for most of my life. We always had a horse or two about the place at home in Maddoxlane, Dundalk and I rode up until I was about 17,” he told The Irish Field.
