Since I started carrying my daughter out to see the Children’s Mashramani Parade, I try to go every year. It is shorter, it’s more entertaining and generally more fun than the Adult’s Parade, partially because you’re not bombarded by boomboxes every 10 feet, or trampled by revelers and spectators alike, as compared to the main parade on Republic Day.
I was disappointed by this years crop of photos that I got, but that’s because I compare it to my previous years’ takings, as well as having a bit of focusing issues with the camera, but I can’t blame the camera alone, I definitely missed the mark somewhere this year.
I still think I came away with some nice ones in the mix, click on the image below to see them in the Gallery, and I look forward to any and all comments 🙂
Maybe I’ll get something better from the Adults Parade 🙂
To all Guyanese, at home and abroad, have a Happy Mashramani this weekend!

Thanks Fidal! I was looking for you on the road 🙂 Didn’t see you
I don’t know if this happens to you too, it may have happened here, but quite often last year I built my expectations up so high when going to take photos, that really nothing I took would have been good enough. It is an inevitable path to disappointment.
This year, I am trying to relax, enjoy wherever I go, and be happy with what I get. I find it makes me a whole lot happier with my photos.
I think you hit the nail on the head! I had high expectations!
