This gent is a fine example of a select group of insane cowboys. He is a rodeo clown and he'll taunt a raging 2000 pound bull and spring out of a barrel in the midst of stampeding mustangs. He is tough, skilled and unruffled ......... well .......... most of the time anyhow. I hope you enjoy.

I really like this as an interpretation of the challenge - very creative, and a good shot. I do feel, however, that the colors of the shirt are a bit too strong, which distracts from the "framed" parts of the image.
Poor bloke dont he look done in! Very clever and original interpretation, great colour saturation. Iinitially I found the railings on the right distractingly unnecessary but the clever use of the OOF person sitting on them in the background made it obvious how essential they are to help convey the rodeo atmosphere. Well done
Beautiful colors, and great capture of the juxtaposition of his outfit and the weary expression on his face (especially remarkable given that his hat is shading part of his face). This photo is framed beautifully in green and blue shades. Nice work all around. I love rodeos and this is a memorable moment.
I'm not certain what the frame is, but I believe it's the mask over the eyes...great use of primary colors, good expression on face, this image tells a story and is captivating to look at...8
