The Grand Marian Procession 2014 in Pictures

The Grand Marian Procession is an annual event held at Intramuros, Manila to showcase the different images of the Virgin Mary from all over the Philippines. It’s held during December.

This year’s Grand Marian Procession was held last Sunday, December 7, 2014 around 4PM. The procession started at Fort Santiago and the images passed by the Manila Cathedral. Hundreds of devotees, particularly from Pakil, Laguna and Cavite, joined the procession. It was a great opportunity to shoot the different Marian Images without going to the churches where these images normally stay.

I'm looking forward to attend next year’s Grand Marian Procession 2015.

Canon PhotoMarathon 2012 Manila Leg

It’s halfway through January 2013 and my blog posts are still about the events last December 2012. I still have a lot of backlog in terms of publishing the pictures I’ve took in 2012. I really wanted to post each and every event I’ve attended in 2012 before posting the new ones that I have in 2013.

So I attended the Canon PhotoMarathon 2012 Manila Leg last December 8, 2012 and it was held at Fort Santiago, Intramuros, Manila. It was my 4th visit to this historical park. I didn’t win in the 3 themes but I sure had a great time with my fellow photographers.

Here are some of the pictures I’ve taken of this annual event.
