Beautiful women, soca music, and liquor will always be a good combination. If it was up to me, every Tuesday would be Carnival Tuesday. If you were unable to make it to Trinidad for Carnival Tuesday this year, below is a sample of what took place with Fantasy. Special thanks to Nigel and Benny for making sure my team and I were taken care of.
After attending carnivals in Miami, Jamaica, and Trinidad I wasn't impressed with Toronto's Caribana. There was a lot of down time, a lot of standing around and a lack of continuous vibes. The lack of liquor Im sure was a minus on the overall carnival. Besides that, the women were gorgeous and the costumes were great. Thanks to Dj Dorenzo for adding some life to the carnival and playing music with the flow and energy Im use to. Up next Miami Carnival. Hope you enjoy the pictures.
It's been well over ten years that I last experience Jamaica's carnival so I was well overdue. Around 10am I met up with my favorite Jamaican photographer Dwayne Watkins and his assistant Steven. From there we were off to a very adventurous day. We started out with the intention of only marching halfway but the carnival vibe hit us early and we couldn't seem to break away. I was warned that it normally rains every year for Jamaica's carnival and yes this year was no exception. Luckily my camera bag has a rain coat; however, the down pour was so hard we had to seek shelter. Eventually the rain passed and it was back on the road again. Continuing on the journey I met up with Dj Bambino & Dj Walshy Fire and this is where the fun began. Deciding that we needed a bit more vibes Dj Bambino took over a truck and tore the place down playing all the soca favorites. I must add that I'm very impressed with this year's soca and next year God willing I will try for Trinidad's carnival.
