Seeing those hats on the men Chooky, reminded me that as soon as you cross the NSW border from Vic, people start wearing those big hats! Must be a northern thing.. Great photos..

Awesome photos - rodeos are a great day out. I don't know how those guys stay so staunch when they take a tumble, walking away like it didn't hurt a bit. lol

What a fun post, not a topic seen to often on quilting blogs, but still fun! Great to see the rodeo through your terrific photography. Thanks for sharing
