Participants hide from a bull during a Basque festival in Bayonne in the Aquitaine region of France.

National Geographic photographer Gerd Ludwig says he chose the 1956 Justin Locke shot for this gallery because of its comic qualities. "The image has a certain humor in it, because it puts the viewer into a situation of knowing more than the bull."
