Edward Whitaker is publicly acknowledged as one of the best racing
photographers ever. And A.P. McCoy is undoubtedly the most
successful jumps jockey ever to have sat on a horse. The fact that
the two have been around at the same time provides a stunning,
revealing and sometimes shocking collection of amazing photographs
from over 20 years. Whitaker claims McCoy has been one of the key
studies of his career and in this beautifully produced book you
have one extraordinary life told through the supremely talented
lens of one extraordinary photographer.

A Year In The Frame is award winning sports photographer, Edward
Whitaker's third collection of images following on from In The
Frame and Beyond The Frame. These photographs encapsulate the
racing year; its grandeur, its traditions, its variety, its vivid
palette of colours. Festivals from around the globe punctuate the
calendar and these are brought to life through the lense of a
master craftsman. From Cheltenham to Chantilly, Meydan to St
Moritz, the best that the sport of kings has to offer is captured
in moments, at times vast in scale and at others focused, intimate.
Stars, both equine and human are on show, as well as racegoers who
tend to dress for the occasion and not the elements they may have
to battle, whilst the unique characteristics of each month are
exposed chapter by chapter. Racing fans are reminded that they are
never more than a few days away from something to enjoy.
