    A really good action shot. The colors, the dust that dizzy and horns directed towards the guy, a wonderful picture where there is a lot happening at once.

    Wow deadly pic.. I’m always a sucker fr jallikettu pics.. in spite of the animal cruelty angle nevertheless, I think its a beautiful and raw dynamic between man versus animal..

    Great shot Josh!

    I can feel the imminent but irresistable danger in this, and the power of the bull.

    Fantastic shot. Where were you when you took this shot? I am told, the place is very crowded and there are no fences to keep the bulls separated from the spectators.
