Quiapo Fiesta II: B/W

2008.02.12
These are some shots from the Quiapo Fiesta in early Jan (I've previously posted my family pics from then). In this shot is one of the many Jesus statues paraded around the 1,000,000 people in attendance. This year, like last, a couple died from heart attacks due to the overcrowding.

Near the Quiapo Basilica religious devotion (often borne out of dire poverty) is visible on many faces.

The rest of these images takes you from to the periphery of the fiesta, to the side streets of Quiapo where the people live...

An endless parade came by that afternoon...


Kareoke, porn, and God: a common Philippine scene.
