Tom Johnson, Photographer, New York

Description

This dynamic equestrian image captured by photographer Tom Johnson in New York features a jockey riding a brown horse mid-gallop across a dark dirt racetrack. The subject wears a purple and black athletic outfit with a matching headband and protective eyewear, leaning low over the horse's neck in motion. The horse is equipped with white leg wraps, purple ankle bands, and a light-colored bridle hood. The background shows a flat racing terrain beneath a clear, pale sky with distant utility structures and rails along the track edge. The composition emphasises high-speed action and athletic focus under natural daylight conditions.
