21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Training Day - Eduardo And The Beast

Bullfighting aka corrida de toros translated as the “running of bulls” in Spanish is an iconic art form tradition practiced in Spain, Portugal, Southern France, Mexico, Colombia, Ecuador, Venezuela, and Peru. Controversial with regard to its aggression and physicality to the welfare of the bull, its funding base, and its religious concerns; still a spectacle to watch, incredibly exhilarating, and at heart a cultural event of heritage.
