Rodeo Clown, Wired for Video




Two of the three rodeo clown at this past weekend’s Bailey Kay Hutson Bull Riding event at Dripping Springs Ranch Park were wired with GoPro cameras. Given some of the action during the evening (which included one of these gents being bucked 10 feet airborne by a particularly grumpy bovine), I suspect the resulting video could be rather spectacular.

Find more shots from the event here.

Technical note: If you look at the EXIF and get confused as to why I used such a high ISO and shutter speed for this shot, the area around the chutes was in bright sun at this point but 15 feet closer to the arena we were in deep shade with artificial light. I was set up to shoot the action in the arena and just grabbed this shot without changing all my settings.

For the technically inclined...

  • Aperture: ƒ/4
  • Camera: NIKON D810
  • Focal length: 180mm
  • ISO: 6400
  • Shutter speed: 1/3000s
