Torro


Torro, originally uploaded by Alexcia DeVasquez.

This is one of the images form my first bull fight. There are many more on Flick'r. It was pretty amazing seeing how influential the Bull Fight is to the culture here and all of the Latin American countries as well.

I found the fight a lot different then I expected. I find that I'm not quite sure how to explain everything I noticed. I expected to the crowds to go wild and be ruthless. I realized, that's not the Spanish way. They are much more reserved then the Latin American countries that I have been to. The Spanish Matadors were surprisingly modest and polite. The audience was respectful and surprisingly quiet.
