I agree with Bob - the image would be even stronger minus the empty dirt foreground.
Either way, it's a great catch. The crowd's expressions are a huge chunk of the story.

Great get.I love the expressions of the cowboys in the background almost as much as the drama of the height of this monster.I'd love to see the image cropped; take away much of the foreground (doesn't add much to me) and a bit in on the right to center the background cowboys a bit.Just my opinion though.

All: There is one particular bull on the BCRA circuit, who has been ridden two to three times, each weekend, for the last 3 years. Last Saturday, one very tough cowboy became only the third chap to stay on him, for the full 8 seconds. One look and you'll understand why..... http://www.furnfeather.net/Temps/Ride.htm Comments, criticism appreciated, as always.
