Susan Hanrahan loves bucking bulls and her hobby is photography. She has put the two together to bring us up-close-and-personal with the great bovine stars of the Professional Bull Riders Association. Her fabulous photos are a tribute to her wonderful photographic talent and the great love she has for these marvelous animal athletes.
Enjoy this second gallery of Susan’s magnificent tribute to the bucking bulls of the PBR.
Mick E Mouse Portrait: One of the few times I got to see Mick E Mouse in person. Finals in Vegas 2014
Big Black: He was in the exercise pen, during a bull housing tour. Kenny McElroy was leading my group and talking about bull care. Black probably wasn’t thrilled with all us fans around.
Staredown: I love the stare-down between this bull and Fearless Frank Newsome!
The late, great Mississippi Hippy with Cody Lambert: Cody was talking away and all of us who could see this were hysterically laughing! I really thought Hippy was going to lick his face! A moment after I took the photo, Cody realized this giant bull’s nose was an inch from his face.
Biker Bob: He was in the exercise pen, during the Finals, in Vegas in 2017. He was running around and seemed very interested in my camera! Lol
Not Today Stetson: Slinger Jr. from K-C Bucking Bulls letting Stetson Lawrence know that 8 seconds was quite out of the question!
Bull On The Shark Cage???: This was from Glendale, NY in 2017. I really thought this bull was going to jump up on the shark cage. One of these days Flint will be in trouble!
Catfish John – Vegas Playpen: Love this shot of Chad Berger’s Catfish John. He sure enjoyed playing in the exercise pen!
Smooth Operator: 2016 World Finals in Vegas. Look how low Smooth Operator’s head is to the ground!
Seven Dust = Danger: This photo shows the moment I fell in love with Seven Dust! It also shows the tremendous danger of the sport. Pacheco was fine…amazingly! This was in Colorado Springs.
