Mijas Bullring, Spain

Photographer : Gerard McLoughlin

"It is Saturday, the day before the bullfight. We pass through a side door and emerge blinking in the sunbaked ring. The bulls, the matadors and the animated spectators are missing; but, momentarily blinded by the glaring sand and dazzling white and blood-red walls, it is hard not to hear the snorts, the cheers and the loud 'Ole's'." 'Spanish Reverie'
