Sounds fun! I have a few questions:
1) Is your real name required to enter?
2) Should the picture be taken from the direct profile of the model, or does it matter?
3) Does the background matter?
4) Can you briefly describe what you're looking for in classes 40-43?
Thanks! I'm still kinda new to all the photo showing rules and stuff, but it sounds really fun! I'll see if I have time to enter!

Blue Grass,
1) Your real name is not required.

2) I'm not exactly sure what you mean. The picture should be yours, and it should give a clear view of the conformation of the horse. Does this answer your question?

3) Background doesn't matter directly, but a neutral or realistic background usually helps the appearance of the horse by not interfering.

4) The scene class entries are photos of a horse or horses and anything else that you want to make a scene. A few examples are: you can enter a picture of two horses playing in a field, a horse and a cat, or the vet checking up on a horse. Classes 41 - 43 are basically the same as the other conformational and color classes except instead of entering a horse to be judged, you enter either farm animals, cats, dogs, rabbits, geese, or wild animals.

Okay, thanks! That helped a lot! For number 2, I was just wondering if the picture should be from the direct side of the model, or if it can be like a 3/4 angle view. I don't know if that makes sense, but I think I understand.

Side view is preferable, but 3/4 in either direction is good too.

Okay, thanks!
