Are you now in Calgary? Good heavens, I cannot keep up with you. Great action capture. Hope you got more of these.

Superb action shot! The bull didn't get far from the gate, and all 6 feet (cowboy and bull) are in the air, about to part ways. Is this at the Pendleton Roundup in Oregon?

Cracking shot and it looks like the rider is about to get his head cracked also...I didn't know bulls could fly..Nice one Jen..R.

Jen I've never seen a hovering bull before, lol.
Superb action shot, taken just in the available split second.
Great shot!

Wow..talk about some serious air time with that bull. I doubt that cowboy made it the full 8 seconds. A great action shot.

Great shot! And as a former bull rider, thank you for capturing and presenting a fine example of what it is like coming out of the chute on such a powerful animal. It's basically like trying to hold on to an explosion! Faved, saved, and nominated!

That's great how high up he was when you took this. Fantastic capture. My brother just went to Pendelton this past weekend too. I hear it's a good time.

Jen - Perfect timing on this shot. I don't think that the rider is long on the clock for this heat. That is one agitated and strong bull Thad

Nice shot! I love keeping the idea and the pageantry of the rodeo alive. Thanks for doing so. I love how crisp and clear the bull is, but with the cowboy slightly blurred and in front of those other people and such, he kind of gets lost in the pic. If you could have gotten him as clear as the bull, a little more set apart from the background, I'd like it even better. But still, very very nicely done! Keep it up!

P.S. If you get a chance Take a look at my gallery. Any comments, criticisms, advice, etc. on any of my pics would be greatly appreciated. Have an awesome day!

Wow, what a shot! Did he stay on?
Only thing that could make this better was if the bull and the cowboy were centered (I know, I am anal about this). LOL

Great shot!

Great shot, Jeenie! Color and focus spot on. Comp is terrific, especially condsidering your split second decision when shooting. Well done!
