Had one of the best times photographing The Reno Rodeo “The “Wildest, Richest Rodeo in the West!” It was great to go back to Reno to see both my photo and non-photo friends. Up to this point I had never photograph let alone been to a Rodeo. One thing that was a surprise to me is the dress code (see photo below), Jeans, Shirt, Big Belt Buckle and of course a 5 gallon hat. Here are some of my favorites from a great weekend. Enjoy!
