I took this set during your Loyalty Day in the university, the day I was in a suit.








I hope you like them.

Love that last one, and how obvious it is that they are having fun! Brings back good memories of time spent in the Philippines.

Very interesting Rick. I'm really intrigued by the young lady with the glass balanced on her head and the two in her hands. that feat must take some intense concentration.

I really enjoyed your set Rick, I have actually seen this dance performed. Here in Montana the Filipina's hold a festival every year, each year it is held in a different community. They do traditional Filipino dances with original attire! Great Stuff.

Great set of pictures. I love dancing and I enjoy seeing dances. I have observed the dance using the bamboo poles at an international folk dance festival here in the states. The one that I saw that dance was in North Carolina (though I now live in Florida). You have captured these dancers extremely well. I love all the color and the warmth of the photos.

These are great Rick, all so full of energy, life and youthfulness and I see the young ladies came up with a very innovative method of carrying the drinks back from the bar.
Fantastic pictures mate
