toca boi, a photo from Rio Grande do Sul, South

Photographer's Note

During a horse competition, knights were chalenged to get control over a young bull. Bulls were waiting in a close area then released in a big area and knights were supposed to make the bulls go to a certain place...this competiotion with two knights is known as "paleteada". This man in the picture was encharged to make the bulls run yelling and pushing a stick of wood in order to make the bulls run faster.

I like this one very much. The face of the first level man with the hat and the one of the boy looking at him (or maybe you) in the back are very impressive.
You may edit this one to change the medium which is set to "Color".
