Flamenco photos

There's a nice selection of photos from the Flamenco Project (pictures taken by American in the 60s) in El País today.
I especially like the one of the boy dancing at daybreak during the Feria de Sevilla (speaking of 'madrugarse'...):

Thank you for the link! The entire website is really great.
I read one of the books by D. Pohren this summer, it's cool to recognize some of the characters in those pictures.
