It was for sure not this cowboy's day. It is not easy to take action shots like this, and your stop action is not really the best in this photo. This of course means that you photo is all over a bit blurred. The hat of the cowboy and the face of the bull is over exposed.

I do like the change to sepia giving the photo the old time look, and I also think the tight framing is working well.

I can see that you did the framing to calm down a bit of a busy background, but heavy framing like this can often be a bit distracting. I would say that you are nearly there, but you probably need to faster shutter speed.

Wow! The rodeo! Did you move to Texas???LOL!

Love the sepia finish and how you caught the guy falling and kept the focus. GREAT JOB!!

So different, but quite good!

Blessings,
Brenda

a fantastic stop action; sorrynot to have a six stars anymore; good idea to covert it to sepia (or whatever you call it), one is not distracted by the colors;

This is a very nice action shot, and that looks very painful lol. I like the black and white effect a lot. Your focus and framing are both very good, and the lighting is great as well. You did a fantastic job :)

Definitely a bad day for the cowboy, but I always cheer for the bull. Excellent clarity in the picture, nice choice of colour and beautiful, well suited frame.

Great action shot! Sepia tone? Good clarity and lighting. Tells a story and has great initial impact as well.

nice work, good action. could use a bit of contrast to make it easier to see. maybe an hdr filter?

at first I thought it was a morph shot of a man and a goat, lol
