Oil-wrestling in the near of Antalya. the field is crowded with simultaneous matches in eleven divisions, ranging from school kids to forty-year-old masters. There are few forbidden holds, and grabbing of trunks is not off limits.
shot with canon 7D, canon 50mm/f1,4, tokina 11-16mm/f2,8, vario ND

    Why are the spectators sooo far away from the wrestlers.? .. maybe it's the camera angle...?
  • markus dassel plus 11 months ago
    the field is crowded with simultaneous matches and they need a lot of space for their warm up exercises.

    I was just listening to Beth Hart's song "Take It Easy On Me." That song would be perfect with this video. youtube.com/watch?v=5l8SSnQTcCg
