Montgat Annual Carnaval 2019 by Eddie

Shot from our window as the carnaval passed on 3 March 2019. Lots of colour, variety and most of all happy smiling people. Traditions are there for a reason, perhaps to lift the spirit, create harmony in the community or preserve elements of our culture.

About Eddie and his walks with a camera.

“I like to capture anything as I walk along with an open heart and mind, be it the landscape, wildlife, birds or aspects of human nature or the moon above in the night sky. Each photo for me teaches me how I can do better or opens an idea of another theme to shoot. I hope the results will inspire others
