Fort Worth Stock Show get together Sunday January 20th - 01-11-2008, 02:23 PM


How about if we arrange a get together at the Stock Show this year ?
General Admission is $8, but a rodeo ticket gets you general admission plus the rodeo and is only $22 ($16 for some shows).

Fort Worth Stock Show website

I am not aware of any camera restrictions.

Confirmed for Sunday Jan 20th.

What time ???

Tom,

Parade is tomorrow (Saturday) morning. A few of us are meeting in the coffee shop of Barnes and Noble at 9:30. Breakfast then parade. We have our priorities in order.

If I can fit it in I'd love to go. I'll check back to see what date and time is decided upon.

I had to miss the parade, but am ready to go to the stockshow and rodeo.

Those interested can post what day of the week they prefer.
Keep in mind that some of the rodeo shows get sold out ahead of time.



I prefer a mid week date.


tuesday Jan 29th rodeos at 2 and at 7:30 (preference).
or
Sunday Jan 20th

That lens may be a bit much for this venue.
Here is a shot I took last year with a 50 1.8.
The light is what is challenging, plus the fast motion.
This year I will take my 70-200 2.8 IS and shoot at 1600 and pray for help.

Tom, was that shot cropped?
I'm thinking of bringing my 85mm f/1.8. Wondering if that's too long.

I was sitting in the top row of the arena and shot with a 50. An 85 would be good. This is cropped a LOT>.>.>
