The Spanish word <em>toro </em>refers to both a Spanish city and a cattle breed known as the "Spanish fighting bull."</p><p><em>—Jaclyn Skurie</em></p><p><strong>Why We Love It</strong></p><p id="docs-internal-guid-0906c9cd-d487-1169-9d00-53ac7f43bd64" dir="ltr">"I really like how the light reveals a different portion of each of the three figures. We see the parts of one complete figure--a head, a body, and feet--separated across three individuals. The lighting is dramatic and helps create the sense of anticipation as we wait for the bullfighters to emerge from the shadows and enter the arena." <em>—Ben Fitch, associate photo editor</em></p>
