One of the most vivid and lively activities for the Fiesta Pilar 2012 is the Zamboanga Hermosa Street Dance Competition.
I just waited outside of the Don Joaquin Enriquez Memorial Stadium where the dancers were expected to enter.
This is not the most picturesque site to shoot for the Street Dance. I think the best place is still the City Hall based on the photos I've seen.
However, since I was also wondering where I could catch the Street Dance, I thought I would just position myself here!
I'll flood you again with close-up shots and really far shots of the Street Dance Parade.
"Why will I flood you with this photos?"
I do hope you could get the feel of the Hermosa Street Dance Competition... and maybe, you might want to see this live next year!!!
Very notable during the Parade were the sponsors but I guess, these were the corporations who helped these schools with their bright and colorful costumes and grand props and choreography!
The Audience's deafening cheers!
Group 1

I found out that there were only 11 dance groups and so I missed two contingents. I should have waited...mmmm!
Group 10
Group 11 Talisayan National High School
I found out that Talisayan National High School is the 2012 Street Dance Competition Champion!
The colors of life... the smiles of joy... grand choreograpy and form amidst weariness and heat... grace and lithe inspite of the muddy grounds!
That's the spirit of the Zamboanga Hermosa Festival!
Viva fiesta Pilar 2012!!!
