 This is a shot taken at the Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo. It was a pure fluke and I didn't know I had it until I looked at all the pictures. I grew up sitting in my family's company box as a kid and haven't had tickets for years and years. My branch got 2 events this year. How much fun it was to take my grand kids this time. I got to eat cotton candy and watch my youngest grandbaby stand where I did when I was his age. Too sweet and we had a TON of fun too.

nice! this gives me a headache to see it, but talk about perfect timing! zooming in to give the motion blur is tough enough without getting a relevant subject! 9
