Zomercarnaval

I contemplated shooting pictures for Portreat.com today, but decided against it. The crowd seemed to be too much a collection of spectators, not participants.

Also, the parade seemed to resemble FFWD in quite a couple of ways, most notably the boring ‘performers’ on many of the trailers chugging along slowly. I wondered if the many dressed up elderly (white) men in the parade missed the gay pride parade earlier in the year and decided that the many older (white) women, also dressed up, in the parade, should have stayed home for their second coming.

Still, the Bolivians were very cool, all dressed up in what resembled bullfighting costumes.
