CONGRATULATIONS to Oughterard, Co Galway-based equine photographer Rynes Walker, a regular contributor to Irish Horse World, on her award-winning photographs in the Irish Professional Photographers & Videographers Association, Photographer Of The Year Awards.

“It’s really super to see my images up alongside the work of some truly outstanding photographers. Gaining awards can really be a great boost to morale, and an incentive to keep striving for better imagery in the future,” Rynes said.

One of the photographs is from the 2024 Ballyconneely Agricultural Show and captures Bridget and Peter Lee embracing after landing victory. Well done Rynes!
