Excellent action capture and I do like the way you used subtle selective desat to isolate your subject in what is always a busy background at these events. Well done.

Although I personally think this might be stretching it a bit to meet the challenge, I think the photo itself is terrific! I LOVE the motion blur, although I wouldn't be surprised if the voters bomb you for that. I can't ever recall seeing a blurry rodeo photo, which is probably part of why I like this so much. It's unusual and different. The perfectly focused ones have gotten boring! ;)

Very pretty bouquet. Needs a tad more light in upper left, and maybe consider cropping out more of the green on the left edge of the photo. But the rest of it is quite lovely.
