I was surprised at how this competition worked. Unlike a regular cutting horse competition where you get penalized for using the reins, in this one they were scored for how well the horses reined. They also only worked one cow at a time. Still, the horses were magnificent.

Working cow horse and cutting are two different competitions and are judged differently. I find both a lot of fun to watch. I prefer cutting, but it's a lot hardr to photograph.

As for your photos, they're nicely done. Did you intend to have them be crooked? Some people do that intentionally, so I've learned to ask. But they're sharp and nicely framed.
