I went to the fair in Missoula a week (or was it a couple weeks?) ago and had tickets to go to the rodeo with my boyfriend and a very good, old friend from my days in the midwest.

It was pretty great – I haven’t been to a rodeo since I was a wee thing passing through Jackson Hole – and I figured I’d take my camera along just for the heck of it.

Disclaimer: I wasn’t shooting as a press photographer so I didn’t have the freedom to move around the arena, but I think some of these shots are kinda cool.

Have fun checking them out!

It’s almost as if he’s levitating.

Check out the air this bronco got!

Finally, the light became interesting.

These oxen were enormous!

Cute little boy wearing his dad’s jacket.

It’s amazing how skilled these guys were.

The little guy was so adorable!

And these chicks had some serious skill.

Mad bull.

I like the guys’ faces behind the action.

Cheers!
