This is La Candelaria, where i live.
These ones are from a big parade which was held on the Septima, a massive road that cuts through the city from North to South.
I like the jaunty angle of this guy´s clarinet.
The Septima is most excellent because every Friday night they close it off to traffic and there are bands, and people selling coffee and canelazo (which is the local aniseedy spirit mixed with hot water, sugar cane, cinnamon and spices), and dancing and guinea pig races. This involved betting on which upturned bucket one reluctant cuy will choose to enter, it´s great because they always stop to wash their whiskers and the crowd get agitated and suggest that the guinea pig handler might like to apply the toe of his boot to the animal´s erse to speed matters up a little. 
Glesga pride!
