Embrace the Chaos

The are so many things to make a photographer crazy in a rodeo arena.  Not enough light here, too much light there, the dirt's too dark, the neon is too loud and everybody wears a hat.  I've learned to just embrace the chaos, exposure for my center of interest and let the other stuff fall where it will.
