> At the end of the Bull Riding "Invitational", a couple of weekends ago, the

> a $2,500 bonus, if he could stay on for the 8 seconds. (Not sure what that
> works out to, by the hour...)

> The winner passed on the opportunity, as he was too bruised up, so the #2
> cowboy took the "honour".

> The sun was low, the light bad. The shots have some motion blur due to the
> speed of the action and a 1/500th shutter, despite being wide open at ISO
> 800.

> The bull bucked the rider off; turned and knocked the rider down, as he was
> starting to get up. Then the bull stood on him.

> The Cowboy was attended to, by the medics, for some 20 minutes before they

> but in Cowboy speak, that only means he was still breathing when they put
> him in the ambulance. Word on the street is that he had both legs broken.

> For those strong of stomach, I have the 11 shots leading up to this one, on
> a single page. As you look, remember that the total time, from start to
> finish is 1 and 1/3 seconds (12 shots @ 9fps.)

> That series is here:
