8seconds.



three photos all in the matter of a split second.
three perspectives::
bull:  i'm getting antsy as the flank man secures the strap. buck. buck. buck until this flank strap comes off and this cowboy dismounts.  buck high and fast to get a better score over this cowboy.  after i go behind the gate everything is all of the sudden calm, as am i when the flank strap is released.

cowboy:  it's only 8 seconds on top of a nearly 2000 pound animal, i can do it as i have before.  my adrenaline is rushing but when i nod queuing the chute to open; my adrenaline peaks.  finally, after what feels like minutes, the buzzer goes off and when i am dismounting the bull throws me and i give the chute a nice hug, roughest hug i ever had... as i leave the arena i am thankful for the bull fighters for keeping me out of harms way.

bullfighter(s):  maintain the triangle around the bull and keep moving with him.  quick! get in between the bull and rider, distract the bull! hey, hey, hey i call.  the bull is now behind the gate as i rush over to be sure that the rider is in good shape and help him up.

capture moments through different lenses

I PHONE i phones have a series of different filters that will bring out and add different colors to your image.  they also offer the option of different lenses.  some examples are normal "photo" mode there is also a "portrait", "square", "pano" modes that may be appropriate at any given time.   these photos are both taken on an apple iPhone 7 plus in the instant filter.  the photo on the right was taken in portrait mode.  portrait mode blurs the background so that all the focus goes toward the subject, that is then the only thing the eye focuses on.   among the nine filters apple offers there are three black and white options.  each one has different aspects of light and dark that can be fitting for one photo, but not so much the next.                          here is an example of one picture in the three apple black and white filters.  the filters from lef...
