Default Klein rodeo

I was asked to shoot the rodeo this past labor day weekend. Here are a few shots from the first nights events.

Considering the bull in the 2nd image and the one in the third image both tried to kill me I think they look just fine. Actually they are a bit soft. I didnt apply any sharpening when I sized them down. These were shot at a night time rodeo with crappy lighting (half the arena lights cut out and they couldnt get them fixed) and a lens that was a bit soft anyway. No excuses, just an explanation

Night rodeos have really tough lighting. I am not sure about your equipment but I would suggest a good fash to allow you to increase your shutter speed.
