These are a few low quality images I pulled from the main picture. Taken with the Sony A7III camera and the Sony GM 70-200 lens. Also I used the Windows Snipping Tool to snip these out of the main picture. No Photoshop yet.

Fluvanna County Fair RODEO – Grit, Grace, and Local Spirit
At Tomanek Photography, capturing the pulse of community events is a craft rooted in authenticity and timing. The Fluvanna County Fair RODEO gallery showcases the raw energy and tradition of rodeo culture in Central Virginia. From bucking broncos to crowd cheers, William B. Tomanek documents the action with precision and emotion—using professional gear like the Sony A7III and Sony GM 70–200mm lens to freeze fast-paced moments in vivid detail.
Though these preview images were snipped from larger files and await final editing, they already reflect the grit and grace of the rodeo experience. This gallery is part of William’s broader commitment to preserving local heritage through candid, event-based photography.
What You’ll Find:
- Rodeo Action: Riders, ropers, and adrenaline-fueled moments captured mid-motion.
- Atmospheric Scenes: Dust, dusk, and crowd reactions that bring the event to life.
- Behind-the-Scenes Transparency: A glimpse into William’s editing process, with full-resolution images forthcoming.
Why It Stands Out:
- Technical Skill: Even in preview form, the images show sharp composition and dynamic framing.
- Community Connection: Like his coverage of the American Legion Post 2003, Native American Pow Wow, and Lake Monticello Car Show, this gallery reflects William’s dedication to documenting Central Virginia’s cultural heartbeat.
- Authentic Storytelling: No filters, no staging—just real moments from the rodeo arena.
Whether you’re a rodeo fan, a fairgoer, or someone who values local tradition, this gallery offers a spirited look at one of Fluvanna County’s most exciting annual events.
