South – March 2023 – Sports Action

Judges Comments

While the judges felt weird about awarding places to the same type of sport, these rodeo photos were without a doubt very well done. First place had the best body language, key moment and the right cropping that set it apart from all the sports action submissions. Second place was a unique view of a bull as it is way up in the air. The bull's eyes really give this a sense of urgency. Third place was a really nice peak action moment and the body language of the horse and rider really pulled it all together.
