I was not excited to go and shoot a rodeo, I drug my heals and even tried to think of ways to get out of it. I imagined inbred hillbilly’s and Nascar jackets. But what I found was a bunch of BAD ASS cowboys trying to kill themselves by riding thousand pound+ animals. These guys are some tuff sun-a-bitches. The atmosphere was like something from a 1950’s Life Magazine. I mainly used my Sony a99 w/ Sigma 35 1.4 art lens @ ISO 6400. I've printed some of them up to 24x36in and they are stunning, at least I think so.
