Hala Bira Dinagyang! Photo Gallery by Jose Libres Librodo at pbase.com

Hala Bira Dinagyang!

Colors... Rhythm...Dancing..
the whole Iloilo city throbs, gyrate and chants!

"Dinagyang"
meaning merrymaking is the country's best festival.
Celebrated every 3rd weekend of January
to commemorate when the spaniards brought the
statue of the infant Jesus to the aborigines.
This festival is simply an opportunity that photographers should not miss!
I as native Ilonggo,
I would like to invite the photographers of the world to join Iloilo celebrating.
Make your reservations now, contact me so that we can
apply from the festival organizers a photographer's pass!
Thank you. Salamat po. Khob khun Krap.

[ Special thanks to Nikon Philippines ]
