A Weekend of Everything That Flies (2 of 2)

Part 2 of this series take-off at dusk when light and dark meet. Paragliders from different part of the world perform areal acrobatics on Mount Arayat backdrop. And as if your eyes ain't entertained enough, the street dancers of Candaba Pampanga lighted the ground with a performance lifted from their recent Ibon-Ebon Festival. It was truly a visual treat for everyone as the colors blend in with the fading light.


Paraglider Havin' A Ball


"Greeting from Up Here"


Air and Land Show


Ibon Ebon Street Dancers


There is even a Boat?


Painted Faces


Dancin' on Stilts


Sun Half-Risen


Glow in the Dark


The night should have been capped with a display of Hot Air Balloons all lined up and glowing in the dark but the wind got stronger making it impossible for the balloons to form. But nevertheless, I still got some shots of those balloons who have managed to form. Seeing those balloons specially the sun balloon all lined-up and glowing must have been a beautiful sight. Well, maybe next year.

14 took the journey:

Sayang di mo nakita lumipad ang lobo. I was there a couple of years ago and the sky is truly an amazing sight with the balloons. Gising ka kasi maaga.
