Visual Serendipity — Bull Fighting in Oman.

 
After dri­ving for 3 hours from Dubai to Sohar with my good friend Issa AlKindy and about 10 min­utes before reach­ing our final des­ti­na­tion, we spot­ted a tra­di­tional Omani Bull Fight­ing on the side of the road. With only 10 min­utes of sun­light left, we reached for the first cam­era avail­able and started shoot­ing. I was crazy enough to shoot both stills with my Canon 7D and a 70-200mm 2.8 lens, and video with a Pana­sonic GH3 and a 12-35mm 2.8 lens. Issa is from Oman ad this was the first time he saw bull­fight­ing. A very rare visual treat.

I believe we are the ONLY pho­tog­ra­phers happy and will­ing to get into a cloud of sand and dust with dig­i­tal cameras. =)
