rodeo photography Across The Line

Thanks for looking; more thanks for comments.

Very nice photo. I especially like the lighting, shadows and action! My only input would be to show more at the left edge of the photo, as the cropping seems too tight there (perhaps show a bit more above the seating overhang too). Overall, very impressive shot though!

Excellent action. Good shot good angle. What fun! Congrats.

When people say a photograph "captures" a moment, this is a kind of pic that does just that. Great action and moment caught on camera!

Thanks all. David, I agree more space on the left would be better, it is not the result of cropping, but of framing error at the time of shooting. I am glad that people like it, even if it is not particularly 'original', but rather a collection of cliches: wide-angle/close viewpoint for exaggerated perspective, somewhat low angle for heroism, contrast and shadows for drama, etc.,
