    I have to say rodeo's not something we see a lot of. Large hats and lighting make shooting these difficult.

    Each of these needs some amount of horizon leveling. In addition, most of the faces are not recognizable--be good to see them.

    I love to see shots that are at the point when something is about to happen.. Like in #2 where the grab is just about to happen... In 5 it looks as though his leg is about to be broken!

    Good call on the straightening Ian

    It is tough to shoot faces when they're wearing hats to shade the face. The dynamic range is wide & I don't use PS for selective exposure. In addition, this was a black rodeo making it doubly tough.

    Thanks for looking & thanks for the comments guys

    BTW: The horse rider's hand locked & he had a great deal of poise under extreme duress (being bounced around); by undoing the strap around the horse (Not bad for guy in his 50's)
