New Website for Sheltering Sky Quarter Horses

Jennifer Balon is a Quarter Horse breeder here in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan who specializes in reining and performance prospects. Jennifer was looking for something different in the site design so we went with bold colors and graphics. Check it out at www.jenniferbalonquarterhorses.com!

Photos from Spruce Meadows, Sept 2009

Photos from Spruce Meadows and the 2009 Battle of the Breeds are posted in two places: Sport Pony and general photos can be found on the Sport Pony Magazine Facebook page, and more Arabian-centric photos are posted on the Canadian Arabian News Facebook page. Have fun!

Photos from Canadian Nationals

Check out all the behind-the-scenes photos from the Arabian breed's Canadian Nationals, also know as the "Royal Red". Lucky for me, this show is held just two and a half hours south in Regina SK.

Photos by myself and Nicole Toren are posted on the Canadian Arabian News' Facebook page.

May Day Show Photos

The photos are up from the May Day Show 2009! It was a beautiful warm day, everyone had a great time, and the show ran smoothly with only a few of the usual hiccups. We had portrait sessions over the lunch hour for anyone wanting pictures with their special friends - this worked out quite well, it's always a good opportunity to take some photos when everyone's cleaned up and dressed up (horses AND riders). And we got some beautiful photos, such as Katee and Beau (above).

May Day Photo Galleries

I also found a new online gallery site called www.dphoto.com. It's got a lot of the things I was looking for in a gallery -mainly,it's got a nice clean interface, it's super simple to use, and it doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles. All this for a pretty reasonable price.

Ilka Ferguson and CA Prom Queen

Just finished processing this photo from Scottsdale and I was so pleased with it, I thought I'd post it on the blog. This is Ilka Ferguson of DeWinton, AB, riding Wanda Leubner's CA Prom Queen. The sun at Scottsdale is very glaring, so here I've burned in the background a bit (particularly the white chairs) so that the dark horse stands out more.

Photos from Scottsdale

Photo galleries from Scottsdale are up - the Canadian Arabian News has a Facebook page and we've posted the galleries there. You don't have to be a Facebook member to be able to look at the page!
