Driscoll Ranch Rodeo. La Honda, CA
I learned to shoot sports action by practicing, and by shooting rodeos in the Bay Area. The Driscoll Ranch Rodeo in La Honda near Half Moon Bay was a great event for several years. In 2013 the ranch was purchased by the Peninsula Open Space Trust and is now part of the La Honda Open Space Preserve. Maybe someday the rodeo will come back, but I wouldn’t bet on it until at least the Knicks make it to a conference finals. For now it’s open to hikers, mountain bikers, and horseback riders.
California Junior Rodeo at Woodside, CA
This image was photographed at Woodside, CA rodeo which is part of the California Junior Rodeo series. Obviously this was taken during the bull riding event, and I have no idea what happened to the actual rider. Hope he enjoyed it!
