I wasnt sure if i really wanted to shoot the festival, since that whole MILF invading the town of Kauswagan happend a little more than month before Kasadya Festival the but what the heck.. the festival was for St. Michael the Archangel and Protector!
To the last minute I was debating if I was going to shoot at the ampitheater since security was tight but seeing all the military around i decided to go on and shoot the festival knowing well that we were protected and safe. The Festival had only 6 contigents, probably because the other towns shyed away because of the security risk the festival posed.
The Festival started late, we wondering why there was not much people at the venue then realized that security was even tighter that each person had to undergo scrutiny at the gate. After the crown slowly trickled in, the festival was on its way.. 10am and the heat was intense.. but i was a lot of fun!
Here are the festival photos and a video slideshow of what happened at the Kasadya Festival.
