Melplash Show, 25 August 2022. This one-day country show is always a great event and famously blessed with good weather just about every year. Normally, I would get to the show at about 9am to witness the animal judging, which is over by mid-day.
Unfortunately, this year I couldn't get to the show until noon, so I only caught the tail end of the judging... In the few hours I was there, I think I managed to capture some of the spirit of the event.
