 I wrote a bunch of frickin' stuff and the file was too big so I have to resubmit and I lost everything I wrote. And I do that every frickin' time. So the quick version:

Stylish guy is Al Foster.
Event is steer wrestling.
I like the clean, context-creating background.
200mm.
Too bright and contrasty light so I converted to mono.
I like flying hats, but what a lame title for a photo...just whoring myself out to voters.
Bye.

This is a wonderful action shot. Great clarity for a movement shot. I like the black and white. With that much going on, all of the color can be distracting and this isn't. Nicely done. 8

Nice action shot. Maybe a tighter crop on the left and right to bring the action closer.

This is a great shot, and having them coming right at you definitely adds drama. 10.
