I See for Free

This is one of the first perspectives I fell in love with at the rodeo.  It's not the shot the pros are paid to get.  You can't photograph them catching the calf from this angle — and that's what people want to see.  But that's just another example of why I choose to stay an amateur.  Money changes everything.  Even the way you see.

Anyway, I've got a dozen of these I could publish from this rodeo.  I chose this one because I like how the subject is mirrored by the rider in the distance — with a red shirt and straw hat.  (Just in case you looked but didn't see.)

From the Georgia High School Rodeo Association event at the Northeast Alabama Agri-Business Center in Rainsville.
