Great action shot showing the skills (including balance) needed in rodeo. A very busy image but very interesting.

Awesome capture, but a bit busy. Playing around with the crop might help.

Great action shot this what balance is, lost a little detail in the head of the cow/bull/beastie thingie . but overall quite good i probably would have preferred it in color as their looks like their was plenty of color with clown etc.

Amazing action capture; I love the expressions of the guys behind the fence. I might have preferred more depth of field, since the guy falling off the bull is just part of the story; lots going on here. That's just nitpicking, though! Excellent work.

senor- some times the bull wins! I like the grainy quality.I would crop out the row of double chinned guys though.

Wow, great stop motion capture here. This photo really speaks volumes and is really interesting to look at. Your choice of F-value is perfect. Not sure if I like the color tone used, but that's just personal taste.... I give an 8

Nice shot but a little busy. Maybe a narrower depth of field next time.

Nicely captured under what looks like difficult conditions.
Good decision to go for B/W , as it helps to keep distractions down to a minimum in a busy image.

Nice action freeze. I think the guy lost the balance battle already though :) I like the tones. The guy on the left definately needs more balance is his choice of clothing lol.
