Too close for comfort! I am enjoying seeing other parts of the rodeo to get a whole picture of the event. I've never gotten into rodeos, but now can't wait 'til next year, but I will be behind the rail! Love the action and how the rider and the horse (slightly) are steering away from the rail! The rail and wave put me there. Great timing, Emile! #10230071

By that wild look in the bronc's eyes (which you captured very well, I may add!:) and with his tongue hanging out from the exertion of trying to buck this brave young man off, I can see why you'd be a bit trepidacious to be too near his line of vision! The rider is hanging on for dear life! Superb stop action, Emile and a great shot! #10233670
