Description

Alaska Sourdough goes to Texas #4 ...... Stepping even further out of character :-) I stayed for part of the Toby Kieth concert after the rodeo. This was a difficult shot. f2.4, 1/15sec, full zoom (5x) and resting the camera on top of my knee for a tripod.

Another version, with a little less zoom and the rotating stage at a different angle. Shows more of the stadium and has a little more atmosphere maybe. If y'all think its worth entering it seperately tomorrow, please let me know! #26068

The close up is well done. The knee kept it steady enough. I like the fans in the upper left corner of the frame. It adds to the photo. They are well lit and in clear focus. The second version has floodlights in the background that are interesting. #66645

Where can I get one of those Minish tripods? Nice work, Gary. I think I like number two better because of it's light and colors but they are both good. You really got around. This is the first year for the rodeo in the Texans new stadium. #66715

Love the lines and colors of the close up one Gary! Your steady knee will make a good advertising for some magic pills:) #66868

You certainly have steady knees Gary! Both are really nice shots. You really have great clarity on these! How was the concert? #66952

These are great, Gary! Love the colors in #1. Is there anything you can't do? #67043

Well, I had to hunt the rest of your Texas shots as I been delinquent here lately. Glad I did. I love the first one, it was an excellant shot. Of course the second does show another perspective. All your shots are great. #67369
