About the Image(s)
“Twisting Bull”
Why I took this image:
Description: For this month’s image I decided it was time to switch up on the sports and go back into my archives and show one of my older images from another sport, that being rodeo. When I still lived in Iowa, every year they had a weeklong rodeo in Ft. Madison. It was always well attended and it started with the Special Kids Rodeo which was an event for handicapped kids in the area.
