Am I going to be famous

I took this photo at the recent rodeo our photo club went to. I just loved the expression on the horses face and he seem to be watching me as I was taking the photo. He also appeared to have a smile on his face too!

As he was racing around the barrels the dust was flying everywhere.

I think this horse and rider won the competition.

@tesssa Thanks Tessa. It was so dusty.

[Babs]

@888rachel They were amazing. The riders all trying to keep the horses as close as possible to the barrel to save seconds.

[Babs]

@hermann We were covered in dust when we got home.

[Babs]

[Babs]

@april16 @lafish @loweygrace @neatz @dgrynn @joeyc @creampuff @sioux @chimfa @onlyme111 @happypat @debilz Thanks so much. I think he really enjoyed himself. I am impressed too that the rider managed to stay on. We were covered in dust when we got home. Nearly had to scrape the stuff off us.

[Gena Pegg]

Oh yes...this is fabulous. I do love that horses expression! Priceless! Great action shot. FAV

[Angela]

Love the movement and dust round the horse's legs.

[Babs]

@eyesmile Thanks so much for the fav Gena. I didn't know I had got that expression until I got home. Was pleased with the result. @angelar Thanks Angela. It was so hot and dry that day and the dust was flying everywhere. We were covered in it when we got home.

[Kathie]

Love the expression on the horse....I can't believe she's making me do this again! Super action shot. Odd the rider is smiling. You'd think she'd get dirt on her teeth. Fav
