March, 2017 Third Place: Plaza de Toros

Heie · 03-20-2017, 02:06 PM

Plaza de Toros in Barcelona, Spain. Now a defunct stadium due to the outlawing of bullfighting in the province of Catalonia, we had it all to ourselves that day when I was traveling with my sisters. It wasn't until after I took the shot did I realize what my 11-year old sister was doing - pretending she was a bull and charging on the sands.

It's not only the picture, but the story behind. This is one that could be just in your dreams. I would not say Good Luck, you already have that. Thanks for posting.

Thank you everyone! Some seriously stiff competition - not feeling as confident as when I submitted this originally
