    Three Cowboys and a Rodeo

    From a local rodeo. They didn't ride a bull but also didn't take any.

    Nice set of pictures Greg! I really like the first one. The second one looks like it might need a WB adjustment. Jeff

    Thanks Jeff I played with the WB awhile an I guess I over thought it, thanks Pylillis
    No posing Frog I actually had to wait until the kid on the left turned towards the camera.

    Re: Three Cowboys and a Rodeo

    I have looked at this series of pictures several times and would like to say that the fourth shot is excellent!!! I have been looking at it over and over and the colors and detail is outstanding! I would be interested in knowing what lens and setting were used for that picture if you don't mind sharing the info. I looked and the EXIF data is not attached. Getting an action shot like that with the lighting it looks like you had available is impressive. Jeff

    Find out who those kids are and make some moolah selling the photo to their parents.
    That it is unposed is miraculous.
    Keep Shooting!

    Thanks again Frog, Liz, Matt. I will see what I can do to find the parents. I wonder if any are brothers?
