Calf tie down

Uploaded: January 26, 2016 | Entered: January 26, 2016 13:45:02

Description

Calf tie down is another of the features at our rodeo. I try to get at least two captures of each contestant when they pick the calf up like this one and when they spread their arm and let the tied calf loose to see if it can get away.

Exif: F Number: 5.6, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/500 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 1000, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 200.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS-1D Mark IV

Great action shot, Emile but I feel bad for the calf. LOL #11427257

Wow! Never heard of a calf tie-down before. It all has to happen very quickly and with a lot of expertise by the contestant - and the photographer, too! :) Like Tammy, gotta feel sorry for the "little" fella who's probably wondering just what the heck is happening here!! #11427289
