The calf chose freedom,
the cowboy chose skill;
the horse, meanwhile,
did all the real work.
A loop kissed the air,
dust rose in applause
out here, even gravity
tips its hat to good timing.

...yes, the horse did the work.
ReplyDeleteEl cavall i el vedell sembla que portaven el ritme. ;-)
ReplyDeleteSalutacions!
It's hard not to cheer for the calf.
ReplyDeleteThe horse and rider are working well together. Once the loop is set the horse will stop to tighten the lariat so the cowboy can throw the calf and wrap three legs with a hitch. Good action photo.
ReplyDeleteLooks like the rider is rearing to go, have a nice weekend.
ReplyDeleteThis is one of my favorite parts of a rodeo. The cutting horses are amazing. Great shot.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! Good vikend and Friday!
ReplyDeleteThe calf is wearing something on its head--- I've never seen that before. I wonder what that's all about.
ReplyDeleteA determined cowboy! Thank you for linking up.
ReplyDeleteOtra preciosa para la serie. Besos.
ReplyDeleteLove the expressions on the cowboy's and the calf's faces!
