Torero
Bronica SQ-Ai | Zenzanon PS 80mm f/2.8 | Fuji Velvia 100
This photo was taken somewhere outside of Salamanca in a little pueblo. When we went with the camp to Salamanca it was usually an all day thing and this is the first thing we did. After a 2 and a half hour bus ride, we got off the bus, used the bathroom and then got onto a big cart. A tractor pulled us a little ways out to a field where we got to see the magic that are toros (bulls). A man named Antonio who owned the ranch gave us a nice little talk about how cool they are and what makes them so special, then we get brought back to his house. From the outside the house looks pretty normal. When you look inside, it’s obvious that it isn’t and that there’s a huge bull ring inside. Antonio let out a little toro that basically couldn’t do much damage to anything. The kids got to play and run around in there for the better half of an hour. The guy in this picture was Antonio’s friend who helped out with his whole presentation. He never said a word but he was one of the coolest people I met in Spain. The dog on the ledge above is one of many on Antonio’s ranch. The girl to the man’s right is named Anaïse and she is from France. She usually wore a backpack for some reason. I think that’s about it.
