Matador (bull fighter)

goldilocksandmy3bears

About 2 hours away from where I live in the middle of nowhere is a town called La Gloria. In this small town sits The Santa Maria bullring. It is the only bullring in 49 states (in the U.S). While they only feature bloodless bullfighting, it is one of the most amazing "dances" I have seen. Lasting about 2 1/2 hours this afternoon they featured a lady named Lupita Lopez. Lopez is one of only 3 women who bullfight. Below are some pictures of this bullfight. I was extremely disappointed I had to use auto the whole time, a 2 year old sitting on your lap doesn't allow for much aperture usage:cry C&C welcome!

#3 is intense!! Nice capture!!


Just a suggestion; A little space between images would help in viewing. It was a bit hard to differentiate where one image stopped and another began thumb

Thanks I'll fix that

I agree. #3 is a great shot. I love the confident smirk she has on her face, like she's saying "bring it on" to the bull.
