This shot is so funny! I thought that I had already commented on this one, but maybe it was Doyle's.

This is a perfectly composed shot Marlyce! The bull to the left is a perfect balance to the cowboys on the right.

I hope that they play Bull Poker at our Rodeo on Friday. I've never seen it before and it sounds crazy!

Right Marny . . . he's NOT looking at you. He seems to be concerned with the charging bull! Clearly he doesn't have what it takes to live with you if little things like that would distract him!!!!

The kind of thing that is a great spectator event, but to participate.....no thankee kindly:):) There are so many things in life that people get up to win money or temporary fame that the mind boggles as to whether they ever think things through. Their hands are raised to take part several minutes before their brains kick-in screaming....'NO!...what have you done?'
An excellent fun moment (for most, that is) captured here my dear Marlyce with great colour and wonderful action details. Cheers sweetie....Ray

I agree Klaas, long on guts and low on the smarts department with these guys. No way I would even get close, saw to many of those guys jumping over the fence.

Annemette....I agree so much with you. No harm to animals and I am okay.The animals all were were well treated here. It was hot and they even had fans blowing on them. Talk to you soon sis.

The only thing dumber than a Bull is a Bull Rider. ;)

Like the clown's colors here and agree with Annemette . . . I also like the idea that the bull might just smear that cowboy with the black hat who was making eyes at you earlier! Incidentally, you typoed the title . . . it says "porker" . . . might want to fix that!

Regards,
Doyle I <~~~~~

Good comment, Marlyce:-)))A funny photo because no harm is done to the bull. I hate Spanish bullfights where people enjoy to see a poor bull being slowly murdered. I donīt understand how this can still be allowed in a civilized nation. I just donīt like when the lowest standard wins, if you know what I mean.
Thanks for your comment on my painting. Itīs actually an old window that I painted on, but unfortunately itīs not possivble to see that itīs glass in the photo which is a pity:-(
Take care, sis`? Yes, who knows maybe we both lived on the Faroe Islands in a former life as sisters:-))
All the best,
Annemette
