War Bonnet Roundup

These are some of my favaorite images from last year's War Bonnet. I'll have some from this year's rodeo in a bit.

If you look carefully, under the rider's right hand you'll see a very interested fan.



Cutting it close.



Mutton Bustin'


Hung Up

That first one is nice.

What's the War Bonnet? Where's it held?

Yup That's my favorite.

The War Bonnet Roundup is the oldest rodeo in Idaho. Goes back to 1911. It's held annually the first week in August in Idaho Falls, ID

wow! Those are some great action shots -
the mutton bustin' one seems oof, but the others are very crisp (especially given such a challenging subject - you must have some fast glass!!)
nice work! :

Thanks. That one is a little oof. I used a 10D which was just out of the shipping container a few days before. I had my old Canon 80-200mm EF 2.8 lens for these pix.

I am still getting used to the cameras. This was only my second experience shooting digital. My back up body was a Digital Rebel which I used on a vacation trip in May. That was my first digital experience. I sold the Rebel shortly thereafter and bought a 20D. Which is another learning curve.

Love the digital world though.

Love #1. Great action and composition. Maybe sharpen to fix slight oof look? You never know.

Those are great shots, WW. I like the ones where the riders are in mid air. #1 and #4 are great.
