    Woohoo! The first one was caught as precisely the right moment, when the woman was 'advancing out of the turn'... Very nicely done!

    I like the second though, cause it looks like a little overdose on the kickage. I have pictures of those, and am quite embarrassed of myself, but I get a good laugh out of them. Great timing!

    Weird, cause I always set up my camera at the third barrel during rodeos too. It seems that everyone's picture turns out better there than the first two.

    Or else I just lie, take pictures of my friends doing speed dash, and say it was the third in a barrel run. Heehee.

    VVV --tis actually a girl doing speed dash, but it looks the same.
