Rodeo Anyone??

[Ken Kapinski]

Went to the Wilsall Rodeo last weekend. But instead of taking the Nikon, I decided to bring the large format camera. I think I managed about 16 photos. Of course if you were there on Saturday, the whole thing was only about an hour and a half long. Still working on developing the film but here is one that is done. Used the Horseman 4x5, Fuji 450mm lens, Ilford HP5+ rated at ISO 1600. Lens wide open (f12) at about 1/125 th second. I hope to have a couple of more photos ready later tonight.

I like it!!
Interesting using the 4x5 for this. What were the challenges?

[Domingo A. Siliceo]

Fantastic, Ken.

Is it rain what I see falling far behind?

[Frank Petronio]

A 450/12 for action, that's sick. Congrats on getting a good shot!

impressive....how did you address focus?

[lenicolas]

impressive!
But not enough to make me give up the nikons for action...

I imagine he focused on the barrel and waited for the rider to come into position, rather than trying to pan and track ;-)
