Madayaw!

Oh, hello there.

I see you’ve noticed my sudden hiatus from the blogging sphere. I’ve just been caught up with traveling and work that I’ve never realized that I momentarily put this on hold for too long. Now that I’m back, I’ve got so much backlogs to work on, especially from my recent travels so please do bear with me. In the mean time, let’s get back on track shall we?

About 3 weeks ago, we celebrated the annual Kadayawan Festival here in Davao City. Being born and raised a Davaoena, and not just counting the fact that I’m a photographer, I’ve been making an effort to attend the Indak Indak sa Kadalanan(street dancing parade) for the past few years, as to take part in the celebration of the rich culture, heritage and bountiful harvest of the 10 tribes of our city. Despite braving the scorching heat (and I must say, this year has been the hottest for me so far), it’s always an amazing experience getting up close with the harmonious beating of drums and dancing, while enjoying the company of great friends and treating ourselves to a few cones of ice cream in between. Allow me to share my takes not just for this year, but in the previous year as well.

Madayaw!
