Sanfermin 2009 / Dia 6 / Agua! Porfa!

Location: Outside Hotel Maisonnave, Nueva Kalea, Pamplona

As explained in an earlier photo, when the txupinazo has been fired, and the fiesta starts in earnest, to clean themselves of all the mustard, flour, champagne, and other dirt, people walk the streets, looking up at balconies shouting agua, agua. When the people living in those apartments hear this, they tip buckets of water over, to “help” those poor souls.

When this “mozo” (young guy), got down on his knees to ask for water, I had to make the photo. It didn’t turn out as good as some previous ones, but I was happy.
