On a vacation in Lima, Peru, I was surprised by a caravan of friends and myself, with lots of traditional costumes, lights, and music.
This caravan is in honor of the monerada, that is to say, the brown virgin who represents the prosperity of the shops and merchants and they pay tribute to her once a year so that she benefits them from a new year of prosperity.
The music is to the touch of the band and people dress allegorical costumes of animals such as gorillas and show sumptuousness, give candy, is a party atmosphere.
In my country Venezuela there is also a similar date where they pay tribute to Santa Barbara to generate wealth.
It was difficult to get photos because there was a lot of movement, lights and colored paper everywhere. The good thing is that the people were very nice and willing to pose for a photo.
I leave you a little video of the monerada.
This post allows me to participate in the contest Behind The Photo organized by @nelyp and by @johan.norberg whom I thank for this initiative that involves all the people who want to participate being professionals or not of the photography and also its sponsor @appreciator.
Because here what counts is the story behind the photography, the how, why, when? And where? also the tips you can share to improve the quality of photographic art.
So if you like photography this contest is for you. If you want to participate enter this link
All photos are in their original version, without filter or any edition, the video and photos were captured with a Samsung Galaxy S3 cell phone
