Caribana Toronto, 2006 Aug 5














On Saturday, August 5, 2006, Toronto held its annual Caribana Festival Parade. Estimates place the crowd size at over 1 million and the promotinal literature claims it to be the largest Indo-Caribbean in North America.

Unless otherwise noted, images posted were taken with a Panasonic Lumix FZ30 at 8 megapixels and reduced in size with slight sharpening (unsharp mask) and minor gamma and colour adjustments.

Comments welcome.
