Morion's PhotoGallery 101: Alive Sinulog Festival 2012!


Photographs taken on January 15, 2012 along the streets of Cebu City during Sinulog Festival Grand Parade. This is my second time to experience Sinulog fever and still the feeling of being part of the celebration in honor of the Senyor Santo Nino  is truly marvelous!
These snapshots shows the different sides of the festivity in the eye of Traveling Morion while joining the sea of devotees in the streets of Cebu City

  1. nice pics tol, its nice that you focused more on the typical people that are often neglected on an event like this..people that take the opportunity to earn while others were focused on the main attraction..hehe..they are the socially and economically challenged people...

  7. I am happy to see your blog with the pictures during the Sinulog. It reflects the real life of the people in Cebu during this festival. Truly, the Cebuanos are deeply rooted in their faith as you have depicted in your photo-article. I've been in Cebu many times but wasn't able to observe this but I'm lucky to have your photos. Hope soon I could experience Sinulog. Thanks.

  11. One of my favorite things about going to festivals are the street food. I don't really care about pricey and upscale restaurants. Nilagang mani, palamig, balut at penoy, solve na ko. Thanks for sharing your photos!

  12. While most photographers focus their attention to the performers and the stars of the street parades...here you are --- taking beyond what is expected - the spectators and this is what a a photo enthusiast really does.

    Great photos you have here.

  21. Colorful festivals like this is really worth watching.

    Just how I wish I have the luxury of funds to hop from one festival to another.

  22. Sinulog is one of the best festivals in the Philippines. I could not forget the good old days celebrating Sinulog with painted faces, that was way back in the 80's..I used to live in Cebu before...and Sinulog festival is one of those memories.

  23. Four years ago I was one of the locals watching and celebrating this annual events. Viva Senior Sto. Nino. Mabuhay ka!

  24. What an experience! Nakakamiss tuloy ang Pinas. I haven't experience Sinulog ever. I am just wondering if I could ever will.

  27. so crowded... it feels good to see those people who are really devoted to Senyor Santo Nino. :)

  28. Congratz! You've got what a Sinulog really is and this is life in PH republic. The "off-stage" actors and actresses are the real participants of any festivities, merry-making or revelries for that matter. You're a "senseful" traveler. :)

  29. As long as there is life, there will always be hope :) Sinulog Pit Senor!

  35. While I love your shots, it's sad to see that Pinoys are way way behind other Asian countries in terms of cleanliness and discipline.
