In these photos we went on the ground on the carnaval route, and very early,
to capture pictures of all the people who make carnaval possible.
See the faces up close of the young, talented and beautiful Haitian brothers
and sisters walking in the carnaval this year.
Certain things were different in this year's Carnaval des fleurs:
1 - The back of the stands where bariccaded off and access was limited. I
don't know if that was a coincidence or planned but it it felt a bit more
secure.
2 - There were absolutely NO DJ's on the stands. someone told me the carnival
comittee wanted NO noise competition coming from the stands. some times the DJs
would be so loud you can barely enjoy the carnival itself.
3 - There were bleashers installed across from the grounds of the National
Palace for the public to sit down enjoy the carnaval. I think this is a first...
and a great idea for people with kids who cannot make it to the stands and do
not want to be on the ground (Sou Beton an)
