Amazingly only one person dead at 37 years old due to a drunk driver that fell asleep at the wheel.

:tro:

Surely something more positive has happened or will happen to get an award for photography. Jockeys in midair and horses falling. Gotta be something else that isn't redundant and/or bad PR for the sport. Maybe someone was allowed in with a camera while Bernardini and Zenyatta turned for home, so to speak. I'd fully expect that to get the prize.

Can someone link me to a site that has all of the past Eclipse Award winning photos? I google'd for it to no avail.

not all, but must of the last ten years. i don't think there have been as many 'accident' photos as some think...
