Taylor Kurtz, Full Swing (WEDDING & EVENT 2025)

Captured on 35mm film, 'Full Swing' freezes a raw, decisive moment in the breakaway roping event at a small country rodeo in rural New South Wales. A cowboy, mid-motion, swings his lasso toward a runaway steer—every ounce of tension, dust, and determination suspended in frame. The texture of the film medium underscores the grit and authenticity of the sport, echoing the rugged spirit of the outback rodeo tradition. This image is a tribute to timing, skill, and the enduring pulse of country rodeo life.
