A winner girl. This is absolutely stunning. I can't believe the amazing action, how clear the picture is, how sharp the details, and how beautiful the colors. This is photography at the masters level. Added as a favorite to enjoy over and over my dear friend.

WOW, indeed, Heather! I've been moving backward in sequence, so I've seen your comment above about its being your first time shooting a rodeo. Looking at all three photos, I am as stunned as everyone else commenting on them. You've done a phenomenal job with your stop-action images. Did you know the Calgary Stampede is celebrating its 100th Anniversary next month? (July 6-15.) I think it's Destiny/Opportunity knocking at your door! Grab your camera and a change of clothes --- you have Calgary's Tourist Bureau waiting to see your photos and hire you to work for them!

Thanks Mary for your kind comments. Yes I did know it was the 100th anniversary of the Calgary Stampede. My son lives in Calgary so at least I would have a place to stay lol. Might have to consider that option.

Well, for heaven's sakes, look at you. First time shooting at a rodeo and up you come with fantastic images. This is soooo powerful, Heather. I don't know how you managed your great perspective on this. I have just got to get myself to a rodeo. After we move. Know there are some around there.

Super superb, Heather - remarkable stop action, great color, detail - a fantastic low pov, hooves and dust flying - heart-stopping-full-of-action capture! Absolutely perfect. If this doesn't make the Judges stand up, notice and applaud, I don't know what will! Kudos!

Carol Teal |
A truly wonderful action shot. You can certainly "feel" the action! I can imagine the thudding hooves, the dirt flying, and the driver urging the horses onward! I have never been to a rodeo with a camera (I have only been to one rodeo that I can remember), but your images inspire me! I will have to go to the next one around here and try my hand at it! Not sure I can compete with your wonderful images though!
