What an amazing experience for you Jeff! From the photos, which are all fantastic by the way, it must have been surreal to actually be there to witness the events and to live amongst the locals. And what a place to go for photography! I am so jealous! Did...
It is once in a lifetime experience for me for sure.

The XT3 focusing tracking is spot on! Very very impressed especially since the horses are moving in erratic non fixed directions which usually will throw the autofocus tracking at high speed off. But the XT3 still locks on even at those challenging condit...

I can see that you had a great time and it looks like the equipment did it's job... there is always something to gain from such experiences and I hope that aspect worked out for you as well. Such harsh conditions... and I just loved the close up portraits...
Really extraordinary.
