Picture of the Week

Glenmore Hunt’s Christine Brady took this beautiful image of staff on a run with the Blue Ridge Mountains watching over them. When Christine is not the hunt club’s photographer, she is a whipper-in.

Photographer Tiffany Dillion Keen went out with the Piedmont Fox Hounds at the beginning of this season.

Karenan Smart took a fun photo of the De La Brooke Foxhounds visiting the Potomac River at a recent meet this November.

What a gorgeous place in Sherborn, Massachusetts for the location of the Norfolk Hunt’s 2023 Opening Meet. Ruth Baltopoulos was the photographer who was there for the colors and living history on parade at the Charlescote Farm Meet.

The first week of July was Millbrook Hunt's first day of roading hounds.  This is Millbrook Hunt's 116th season, which is just amazing.

 The off season is puppy season.  Susan Walker's Longreen Foxhounds have a very cozy whelping box at Susan's house outside of Memphis, Tennessee.

De La Brooke Foxhounds Dude at Maryland Performance Trial held in March 2023. Photo by Andrew Muro. Such a lovely example of a Penn-Marydel in De La Brooke Foxhounds’ Dude.  Not only is he a handsome fellow, but he would make a very nice show jumper with those tight knees!   Originally published on April 3, 2023

“Foxhunting is all about the moment between moments.” - Kristy Lathrop of Fort Leavenworth Hunt.

Here is a moment between moments, a young boy and a hound pause in the middle of the chaotic time when the hunt is gathering to begin the day’s sport. Content with their own company, two souls soak in the living history before them.
