Warning : Blood is shown in the following photos.
This complements the previous posts on bullfighting. This shows the matadors in close proximities to the bulls. The white sticks seen on the back of the bulls are razor sharp barbed sticks called banderillas, planted during the second third of the performance. The white portions were tainted red as the fight progresses.
