Thanks, Howard!

I found it a bit distressing that the AF locked on the north end of the
south-bound Bull, rather than on the cowboy.  Fortunately, the bull rider has
such speed, that the small amount of blur seems to add to the effect of motion
... and the image works.

I just wish I could have got a second shot in the series ... but it was at the
end of the day, the light was fading and the action was very, very fast!

Thanks for looking!

David.
