Revenge

Description

This was taken at my first event in 2006 with my old Canon 20 D but with ISO of 800 and F/10 I was able to get shutter speed of 1/800 to stop this incredible action, sense of motion and danger. I liked that the bull had all 4 hooves up and the eye contact he had with his past rider as well as the angle of the dismounted rider. Comments welcome.

Exif: F Number: 10, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/800 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 800, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 160.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 20D

Oh ya Emile. Right into my favorites with this incredible action. WOW on that bull being in mid air and I love right where that bull's eye is looking to connect with on that ex rider. Thrilling, beautifully done my friend. #11320514
