Calgary Stampede – running and riding at the rodeo
I started this year’s Calgary Stampede with an afternoon at the rodeo with two good friends. We were part of a larger band of harmless troublemakers so the party started before and continued after the rodeo was over. Photography wasn’t my focus on this visit to the grounds but I did have some good opportunities from the seats in the infield right above the chutes.
It was great to see the cowgirls, cowboys and all of the animals in action. Judging by the capacity crowd and all of their happy faces, I wasn’t alone. Happy Stampede!

The first itme I went to the Stampede, I had only been to small rodeos in the east and missed a lot of the events they happened so fast. That is why I like the second-last shot so much. It is great to get a glimpse through your lens of the best doing their best. Happy Stampede week!
