Good Judge, Good Teacher, originally uploaded by Dan Lilly.

I loved watching this judge. Tasked with deciding who got the blue ribbon in the youngest division of competitors. He spent time with each youngster listening to them and providing instruction on how to present their animal. Dressed in a shirt and tie and pressed pants with a crease. A true professional.

This youngster had quite a bit of trouble with his animal and the judge really complimented him. "I love the way you show, you just had an animal that didn't want to work with you very well". How more encouraging could anybody be?
