Description
A photograph of a cowboy riding in the California Rodeo which took place between July 18-22, 1930. The shadows of the horses' front hooves as they plummet down punctuates the bottom of this action scene, the horseman clearing the saddle and hanging on with all his strength. A ragtag throng of boys and the horses unblinking eye add extra interest to this shot.
