Dance until Sunset - Sambuokan Festival 2011

This entry became finalist to the national contest "Express Your Art Photo Contest III: Experience Fiesta".

Mati City, the capital of Davao Oriental province, was once a quiet seaside community now laden with beach resorts lining coconut-filled shores, offering amenities and island banca tours to islets and secret coves. It has now become a most visited destination 3 hours away from Davao City. Sambuokan Festival 2011 is its week long festive celebration of both thanksgiving and observance of the commemoration of its founding anniversary every 29th of October. This is my birthplace.
