amazing. did the clown make it before the bull got him? I used to "farm/animal sit" for friends that went on vacation. hope you don't mind a story.. I noticed the bull was out of the fencing and called the owner who was across the US on other side.. they simply said..well put it back in and close the gate. ha! I laughed and said.. you don't understand..I'm originally a Jersey girl and we don't round up bulls. They laughed and said, get in your van and please get the bull back in the pen and then you can tell others what you've done and noone will mess with you.. lol So, since I was the sitter for them.. I got in my van and truly got the bull back in the pen and it never charged me..thank God. hope this clown made it too..

Amazing and heart stopping photograph. Great use of mono mixed with colour to intensify the action.

Thank you everyone for the kind comments! This was a complete in the moment action shot. The only processing down was for the color. Thanks again!

When your looking for a moment never take your eye away to see if you got the shot, more action may be missed.
