Today's animal photo was taken at the rodeo we went to recently. This is one of the bulls just after he had managed to throw off his rider. The look of satisfaction on his face is priceless.
Now it is the job of the rodeo clowns to try and get the bull out of the ring.
@annied@hermann@karlow75 Thanks. There three rodeo clowns trying to get him out of the arena and he was really teasing them. I think the clowns do a fantastic job, wouldn't fancy that job at all. Some of these bulls really get quite vicious and one of the clowns got a bit of a thump from one of the bulls on this day. Didn't get that shot though, all happened so quick.
....1 down...bring on the others if you dare. Many years ago we went to a bullfight in Portugal - they don't kill the bulls. Those bulls looked angry. Guess I would too if someone stuck me with a sharp pointy object. On second thought that's what the Dentist does. Grrrr
I'm on the bull's side. I'd be really cranky too if someone cinched a girth around me as tight as that poor animal has had inflicted on him. Great photo though, shows all the detail.
@888rachel Thanks Rachel. You wouldn't have liked all that dust if you had been there. We had to be so careful with our cameras and we swallowed so much dust during the afternoon. We were also covered it it when we got home.
@golftragic I'm with you Marnie. I had never been to a rodeo until last year and we have had two rodeo outings now with the photo club. I think I am over that one now though.
