Parade of a Thousand Skirts (3rd)

Vienna74 Loc: Bountiful, Utah now Panama

As I mentioned in two posts yesterday, Saturday we went to the Parade of 1000 Skirts, held every year in Las Tablas, in the Los Santos Province of Panama. It was a lot of fun, beautiful to watch and a photographic challenge of sorts. I think I shot 649 exposures. However, not all were in focus and some featured nothing more than someone's arm in front of my lens. I probably deleted about 150, but among the remaining shots there were many that showed the joy the people experienced. However, my personal favorite from this post is #6 (the two women shot from behind).

I hope you enjoy these additions to my prior posts.

This man deserves a special comment. He was in a wheelchair, and someone pushed him (the parade route was slightly uphill). He was right in front of me and gave me a gib smile when he saw me raking pictures.

I kicked around Panama about 5 years ago and it is a lovely country. I was exploring to retire there and now retired looking at it again. Lovely pictures to shared, they are a colorful people, I loved it there.
