I spent 2 days at a western style rodeo that included horses and buggies, mules, Texas history and people just having fun. Here are 2 shots. First is from the opening ceremony that had 3 old 19th century cannons from the time period of Texas independence firing at the end of the National Anthem. I saw it Friday but did not get a good shot so on Saturday I found a better angle and used the R7 at 30fps and just started firing until I got a good shot.

Second shot of a bronc rider just out of the pen. They dust the horses with talcum powder to give a dusty effect.

Great action shots, the canon in particular as you can see the flames shooting out of the muzzle.
 
A few more from the weekend.

Super action shots! I would say these fall under sports and action.
