Horse and hounds.

Been out following the Hunt again today.. I was held just up the road from our farm, and we walked around the Sand hills following them. Here they are just at the start and the Hounds a looking very eager to find some action..

What a great shot. So very British!! Fav

[Denise Wood]

Obviously these hunts are still occuring! great shot!

[Yao RL]

I hardly believe that this is New Zealand, the plant may tell. How exciting. I wish that I was there.

[Babs]

Fabulous shot, this could be in a rural English setting.

@bonsai @yaorenliu @onewing @gilbertwood This shot may look very British but my other shots not so much.. on top of the West Coast Sand hills..

[Dianne]

This is great - certainly was an interesting day.

[Maggie]

This blew me away - fabulous. An easy fav.

[Irene]

Very English except hunting for animals is banned here

[julia]

@kelly2 They hunt for hares, but I think they would of been all safe today.. @snaphappi Thanks Maggie it was fun to see..

[Sheryl]

City girl, didn't really think we had hunting in NZ - learn something everyday.

[Margo]

Lovely shot of the hunt

[Maggiemae]

What are they going to chase? I can''t imagine - not rabbit, not a hare, -?

[julia]

@maggiemae Yes hare.. But I think the Hares won today.

[Wylie]

Wow, stunning shot of olde England. Fav

[Shelley Gibson]

Great shot

[gloria jones]

Fantastic shot, composition

[ShirleyB]

Great shot, nice to see tradition upheld. The only way you can hunt in England now is to do a drag hunt, where the hounds follow a scent laid down by someone dragging a scented rag over the ground before the dogs are released

[Pat Knowles]

Wonderful! Ha ha it's hare.....they will lead those dogs a merry dance!

[Joyce]

Beautiful capture. A great POV. Love your photos. Follow

Thanks @dide for sending me to this image -- wow. Both of you took such great images of something out of BBC or a movie. Downton Abby?

[Beryl Lloyd]

Great shot of the hunt. Once upon a time a painter would have captured a similar scene in England.
