Taken at Murphy’s Creek Rodeo Queensland Australia Saturday 20th March 2010.
There’s a story within a story here; in the foreground, and the background too. In the main picture, Troy Mara shows his amazing balance and courage on the bull. In the background the young rider’s mates (also riders) are standing watching, one taking photos; all in approval. The rodeo clown who is on the left of the background, shows an unaccustomed smile. What a great ride!

    That is a fantastic and dynamic shot! What power those beasts have! What courage those riders possess! Great shot Linda!

  • Thankyou so much for your encouraging comments; yes I would agree with the power of the beasts, and the courage of the riders….a lot of the riders are not particularly big people either; maybe it is better that way..the bigger they are….
