    • Ding, Like you said, it was VERY challenging to take those night shots. I had to contend with a jostling crowd, lanterns & floats too far out for flash shoot, no tripod space to mount my camera and presence of floodlights glaring against my camera. It was a nightmare for me, as far as taking photos is concerned. But I certainly had a wonderful time admiring all that the students created for their parade presentation. I know my night photos are awful. But FUN was foremost in this event, so FUN was my ultimate reason for posting them here anyway, regardless of the quality. Thank you for enjoying them, my friend. :-) ~~~Mary Ann

    • I really enjoyed the lantern parade that has now become a Christmas tradition there in UP. There are familiar iconic sights (oblation and Quezon) that succinctly describe the venue. It must be challenging to take night photos while keeping your shutter speed up to record the action. I have problems with that but it seems like you did well. Thanks for sharing these pictures, my friend!
