Fashion should be fun and with my photography I love to create those fun moments.

Running with the bulls at Javea ( Xabia ) Alicante , Spain

_EUR0085SonnyClouds rolling in over Montgo _EUR0086Sonnygot to experience this 4 years ago ( damn, I thought it was only 2 years ago ) when I was here with Jacqui, but then it was in Denia, love how everybody is standing in the arena, but as soon as the bull comes closer those people are back behind the safety of those metal bars pretty quickly. _EUR0092Sonnysharp looking horns _EUR0094Sonnysafe. . .on the table ? _EUR0099Sonnyback behnd the bars, but not going to get a good shot from here _EUR0106Sonnynew bull, and yep this one looks a bit more pissed than the previous one _EUR0107Sonnythis "arena" or whatever it is they call it , is a lot bigger than the one in Denia, I would say 4 times bigger, lots more room to run and be chased _EUR0108Sonny

_EUR0127Sonnyooops, coming towards me _EUR0128Sonnyyep, he's looking at how to get to me _EUR0129Sonny
coming around _EUR0130Sonnyreal adrenalin rush _EUR0131Sonnygood thing I got this wooden structure to run around, this thing ran around twice chasing me :-) _EUR0132Sonnyhe's giving up _EUR0135Sonnyholy crap, and heading to these guys and actually climbing up that structure, awesome _EUR0136Sonny

coming for me again :-) _EUR0219Sonny

_EUR0220Sonny

_EUR0222Sonnylove it when they start to dig their hoofs in the dirt like that, yeah, i'm pissed and I'm gonna get you _EUR0223Sonny

_EUR0224SonnyDon't know if it is because this arena is bigger, but the bull seems to have had more luck in Denia, Man Vs. Wild I'm getting a kick here , but not the adrenaline rush I had at Denia _EUR0193Sonnyand I was thinking of standing on top of that thing to get some photos, this poor bull did not score a hit ( or payback ) like the direct hit the bull scored in Denia ( check it out ) _EUR0229Sonnyhello, what's going on here _EUR0232Sonnyi see, it's a lure to get the bull back to it's pen. This was the second bull, and they seem to let them chase the folks for about 20 minutes, then they are brought "lured" back _EUR0237Sonnytakes a girl to get the bull by the horns _EUR0245Sonnyfresh meat, and those horns look sharp _EUR0247Sonnyhere's an idea, why not attach one of those Go Pro cameras to the bull's horns _EUR0248Sonny

_EUR0255Sonnyhahaha _EUR0256Sonny

_EUR0257Sonny

_EUR0263Sonny

_EUR0271Sonny20 minutes are up _EUR0280Sonnytime to check out what's going on in that tent behind the stands, looking pretty civilised here _EUR0281Sonnydefinitely no excessive beer drinking going on here :-) _EUR0283Sonnynew bull and shit this one looks way meaner and tougher than the previous ones, good thing no one is drinking beer around here and will do something silly _EUR0288Sonny

_EUR0290Sonnyno way, damn _EUR0291SonnyImagine this thing chasing you _EUR0297SonnyAll muscle _EUR0298Sonny

_EUR0365Sonnybig head. Well that was fun, long post I know, but was fun running around with the bull, got to do it while I still can right ? Still think the one in Denia with the bull chasing people in the water was more fun, plus it was sunny, plus Jacqui was there as well
