I like this photo because, it was taken

in Madrid, Spain. Athletic Club Bilbao Midfielder, îscar de

Marcos Arana during the match played

between Real Madrid and Athletic Club Bilbao at Santiago

Bernabeu stadium. It’s a great photo and not much edit used to it.

I also like this photo as it was also taken in Madrid,

Spain. Real Madrid Defender, Kepler Laveran Lima Ferreira during the match played between

Real Madrid and Athletic Club Bilbao at Santiago Bernabeu stadium. And same as the other this

photo is taken very explicitly.

I extremely like this photo as it has the grey effect of rain storming of the car giving the photograph a great effect and this was

taken in Suzuka Circuit, Japan. Formula One grand Prix of Japan.
