Whittlesea Rodeo Series #1407 Whittlesea Showground

 


One hand waves,
the other hangs on
the bull declines
all negotiations.

Dust applauds,
the crowd holds breath;
sometimes victory
is simply landing... left.

    That cowboy is already half off that bull. I doubt he will make eight seconds to score a ride. I have greatly enjoyed your rodeo series. Thank you for the great pictures.

    The trail of dust reminds me of your long exposure water shots--- but if you'd taken them that way, it seems the movement of the people (and bull) would be blurred. Interesting, for sure!

    Why anyone would do this is beyond me. True grit.

    Thank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.

    Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday. ☺

    The riders are well protected with helmets, not like in the old western movies.
