Spectators in the stands at my most recent gay rodeo. Competitors and crew will be the next entry, followed by shots of the competition.
In posting these, I find I'm so homesick for Texas (a place I've never lived) right now that I could scream. Nothing makes Chicago seem so bleak, uninteresting, and inhospitable as a few days in Dallas surrounded by people like this.
I'm more myself, more relaxed, and more comfortable shooting photos at a rodeo than I am anywhere else doing anything else.

Those are great photos. Thanks for sharing them. How did you get interested in rodeo, anyway?
You know, I saw somebody at the Rodeo (we were there on Sunday) and thought, "Hey, that looks like Franklin" - but I wasn't sure.
Were you also out at the RoundUp?
Great photos!
Loved your photos. Have watched the Gay Rodeo on the Logo channel and really enjoyed it. Wish there was a gay rodeo near me to go watch.
Thanks for sharing. I'm looking forward to parts 2 and 3.
The guy in the top photo in the white tank top looks H-O-T. At least from the back.
Thanks!
Awesome shots! Can't wait for more! I feel like they are more than just shots of random folks. I feel like they tell stories. You rock.
"In posting these, I find I'm so homesick for Texas (a place I've never lived) right now that I could scream."
Yeah, but once there, you'd realize you were in Bush Evangelist Territory (and you'd hasten back to the Windy City).
Looks like a fun time was had! I've never been to a rodeo. The closest event I've attended is a demolition derby... which is quite different, I guess.
Were you really here(ish) and I missed it?
Hey there!
Haven't checked you in a minute.
Dang! Dems some awe-inspirin' pitchers you got der', son. Wunnerful shots of the good ole boys and gals! Yessiree!
I ain't no fan o'Texas, but the rodeo is great!
You know what? You totally rock at this. Now I want to go to a rodeo! And that is not something that ever occured to me before this moment. :-)
You are cool, Franklin.
Hi, Neat post. There is an issue with your site in web explorer, may test this… IE nonetheless is the market leader and a good section of people will pass over your great writing because of this problem.
