Fernando Ochoa exults after a successful series of passes in Sunday's bullfight at Tijuana's Plaza Monumental. His second bull of the afternoon would receive an indulto, sparing its life, because of the bravery of the bull and the performance of Ochoa.
My first inclination was to crop the picture, showing just the bullfighter. I quickly realized that showing the whole picture with the cheering spectator (as well as the friend taking a cell-phone photo, and the spectators cheering in the shadows), effectively and pleasingly completed the composition.
