Rodeo

A couple of pictures from the Reno Rodeo which ran June 18-27.  I spent 3 nights shooting it and I must admit, it was harder than I expected.  I guess it is like shooting anything else– the more you do it, the better you get.  I had never even been to a rodeo before this– even after going to school in Texas for 4 years.  So, it was a bit of a learning curve.

    The last one is my favorite. The lines and composition are smooth and work well in my opinion.
