Photographer’s Note

Kadayawan is a festival for good harvest. The whole week celebration culminates with a street dancing and floral parade competitions held every 18th and 19th of August respectively. It's the biggest and the grandest festival in the whole island of Mindanao participated by different provinces.

The shaven head participants are from Surigao del Norte, they gathered around and recited some prayers prior to performance. They have a strong support by their governor as he was seen with the contingent on the street. The delegates are called the Bonok Bonok and is a strong contender to sweep the prize.
