Good Mornin' all!
Still at the Barriere Fall Fair & Rodeo...
Bull riding is one of the more dangerous sports in Rodeo...
One of the great risks is that if you come off the animal the wrong
way, there is a great danger that the rope with which you hold on to
the animal will loop and become a knot, thus binding you to the
animal you are, intentionally or not, leaving!
The "Pee Wee's"(age 9 & under) ride calves. The Juniors (10 to
14) ride Heifers and the Seniors ride Steers.
This Junior got himself in a wee bit of trouble... illustrating "how
*not* to ride a Heifer'!

Best viewed in sequence.
Technical: LeiCanon 30D w/80~20/f4 Vario Elmar + 2x converter. Full
tele, as I was at the far end of the rodeo arena. Hand held. ISO 1250.
BTW: His pride was shaken, but he was otherwise undamaged, for his ordeal.
Comments, criticism appreciated, as always.
Thanks for looking.
Cheers!
