Boxing Day hunt meet

We attended the annual meet of the Vale of the White Horse hunt meet on Boxing day in the local park, this is a drag meet to prevent any real foxes being caught.

The weather was cold and bright and there was a good crowd in attendance so a good opportunity to take some photos.

I took the pair of Nikon's with me and just 2 lenses, the DF had the 24-120mm for close ups and some wider angle images and the D500 with the 300mm for some longer shots.

I am happy with the images and both cameras behaved exactly as I wanted.
