Picture of the Week #493 "Anxious Matador"

Barcelona, Spain 1987

I am in the minority when it comes to bull fighting. I am for it. I look at it as art rather than cruelty. As soon as the bull is killed the meat is immediately sold thereby feeding lots of enthusiasts. When hunger is world wide then I am all for feeding the people. The pageantry, the ritual, and the spectacle are all extremely exciting. And yes is does help if there is a good matador who creates a clean kill that makes it worthwhile.
