Very Nice! I like the pose of the horse and rider. The cloud of dust is a nice touch. Very clever title! :D

Your high speed shot certainly conveys the split second moves these riders must make to complete these tricky rodeo maneuvers.The shear power of the horse is also well captured in the contrasting muscle lines.Not a big thing,but I might have considered a tighter crop to eliminate the distracting "restaurant" to focus entirely on the crowd and rider but I realize it is not easy because of the position of "Sally's" head. Bien vu Genevieve,

Salut Geneviève, belle dynamique, l'image de ce cheval en pleine action musclé comme un athlète est superbement croquée.J'aime la composition, l'avant plan attire tellement le regard que le deuxième passe presque inapperçu. Ciao amicalement/jr

Hi Genevieve. A very powerful photo, full of movement and strength. Nice focus on the horse and very good detail. Someday i want to visit a place like that. Well done!
