Kentucky Derby 2008

Every year for 2 minutes in the first Saturday in May, the world turns its gaze on Kentucky. Or so Kentucky thinks.

Here it's just called "The Derby". Last week I took part in my 13th consecutive Derby, working as a photographer's assistant.

Most of the pictures here are taken by me, so you can see why I'm the assistant, not the photographer.
