It seems that the most difficult part on sorting through my rodeo photos is to pick the ones with enough isolation of the subjects. The people on rodeos are brightly dressed, and they appear everywhere in the frame.
While they can be very nice to photograph, in the background of a wild animal they can be quite distracting. In almost all of the shots uploaded, I had to perform some careful cropping to cut people out. Especially, there was this one dude with a BRIGHT one sock. I guess he was trying to distract the animal. In my photos, he will distract my viewers.
Having said that, I do like the various expressions on the faces in the audience.
At first I was wishing that I had a faster lens in order to capture the subject without the distracting faces in the background), but in hind sight, it's not all bad. Had I brought a faster lens, I probably wouldn't have thought to intentionally capture those guys in the background.
