This photo was taken in the small town of Cayambe, Ecuador during its annual bull fighting festival. Spectators are welcome to jump into the arena and participate in the bullfights, which often consist of a lone bull chasing after a crowd of frenzied teenagers.
Have you been to a bull fight before? What was your reaction?

When we were in Spain last year I was the only one in the family interested in a bull fight, so we never saw one. However, this photo, with all those people at the level with the bull, no fencing, is not what I would have expected. Seems scary and yet somehow makes sense that teenagers would be the center of the drama. Great photo. Thanks for sharing.

Great shot ! My neighbor has family in Quito and since she is a school teacher here in the US she has time each summer to return home and visit family. She keeps telling me I would love to visit! Thanks for sharing
