Photographer Doulgas Lees of Warrenton, Va., has won the 2007 Media Eclipse Award for Photography with his picture "Down to Earth," the National Thoroughbred Racing Association announced Dec. 21.

The photo, taken Oct. 20, is of jockey Will Haynes and his mount, Navesink View, tumbling over a fence at the International Gold Cup at Great Meadow Race Course in The Plains, Va. It appeared in the sports section of the Fauquier Times Democrat on Oct. 24.

This is the second Media Eclipse Award for photography for the 57-year-old Lees, who won his first bronze statue in 1978 for a steeplechase photo also published in the Fauquier Democrat. Lees was also an honorable mention for the photography Eclipse in 1980, 1981, and 1994.

Lees photographs frequently appear in the VTA Blog and in the VTA News Bulletin.
