Rodeo offers many different events with a variety of action and speed. Through ever changing lighting, weather, and dust, as well as camera malfunctions, setting adjustments, one can see the appeal of using rodeo as a learning environment.

It is pretty safe to say we love images, love seeing them, and love sharing them. But what about being in them, inspiring others to say 'OMG, I have to have that jacket it looks amazing on you!'
