Watching the Rodeo

This young guy was sitting two seats away from me at the rodeo, looking at the arena and waiting for an event to begin.  I don't usually get images like this, but I did that night and I love it.

It's Mother's Day Sunday, so HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to all you moms out there.  

I hope your day was blessed.

Performer

While waiting for the Rodeo to begin, I wandered around the midway and came upon this group performing.  The volume was crazy loud and I didn't understand a word they were singing, but it was great getting pics of the group.  

I'm grateful today for:

all the good books I've read in my lifetime and how much I enjoy reading

The Rodeo

There's an annual rodeo in Coleman, TX which is one of the only outdoor rodeos that's anywhere near to me.  I've been several times and just love it.  It begins at 8 pm so there's still enough light to get some good photos even though I don't have the best lens for low light.  I considered renting one for the event, but I have a lot of bigger bills that come due in June, so I just dealt with what I have.

Fortunately, the first event, while still pretty light, is the bronc riding.  I had a difficult time deciding which "one" image to use for this post.  So here ya go.

I'm grateful for:

living where cowboys still rock the world

The Hat on the Table

 I borrowed this hat to use for a photo session.  I think I'll probably try some other images in a day or two because this (and the others I made) are nothing to brag about.  

I really like the limited dof and the color pallet, otherwise no big deal.
