Black Hills Roundup

The rodeo was held on July 4th in Belle Fourche, SD. It was their 99th annual rodeo. Nikon D850 and Nikon 105mm f/1.4 for all of the photos. We were in the stands six rows from the arena. Cafe roping, steer wrestling, and team roping events were closer to our end of the arena. The other events were across the stadium. The shutter speed was kept high since I was hand holding the camera and lens.

All of them are wonderful, great captures.
I’ll choose the bull riding, grandson rides. He was in Kyle at their rodeo.

Excellent rodeo images. Great detail. The D850 suits you well.

Excellent set of action shots. Very nicely exposed and focus is spot-on.
Nikon's new focusing module is first rate. Every shot was in focus. Obviously if I missed the target it was out of focus, but literally every picture was in focus. I was shooting at very high shutter speeds which helped, but none the less the focus system for Nikon is impressive.
