As it turns out, rodeos are fun. Actually, this is a bit of a generalisation. Given the current evidence, all I can deductively conclude is that there exists at least one fun rodeo in the world. Unlike in many other animal-involving pastimes, the animal has the upper hand in a rodeo. (Looking straight at you, Spaniards.)
Photographing rodeos is also fun. It's action-packed and the action happens on one predictable spot, very much unlike any team sport.
The main challenge came when I was post-processing the photos. I took around 1,000 photos that day, and after a while, they all started to look the same. I start making mental notes about the quality of the photos, then I feel sorry for the animals, so I judge my photographs purely based on the panic on the rider's face. This is not good.
So it will still take many a day of post-processing (also; I'm lazy) to get through all of them, and choose the ones that are worth showing other people.
