First it's a photo shoot at Oak Hill Cemetery, now I am having a ball at the Day of the Dead Festival! I guess the Cemetery in Montmartre is next. Meanwhile this was my first time to attend this wonderful event , and I'm so glad I did. Bare Hands Gallery on Richard Arrington Blvd. South, hosted this 6th Annual Dia de los Muertos Festival . The festivities started at 1:00 and lasted into the night. Oh my, it's an eyeful!!! I took about 100 photos in a very short time. One day's post is NOT going to get the job done. I couldn't begin to capture it all or choose the one or two I really want you to see. To quote Strangetastes, " A photographer's buffet." Consider today's offerings your appetizer!
Top Photo: Isn't she fabulous? I couldn't stop snapping photos of her. There were many folks young and old dressed as skeletons and other spirits.
Bottom Photo: One of the many shrines for the dearly departed.
