PEREGRINACION DE LOS FAVORECIDOS 2008

The Festival of the Virgin of Guadalupe is held in Puerto Vallarta during the first 12 days of December each year. December 12th marks the anniversary of the day when the Virgin of Guadalupe made her miraculous appearance to Juan Diego in Mexico City. This gallery shows just a few of the thousands and thousands of "Favorecidos" who were walking to the Church of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Puerto Vallarta on December 12, 2008. I have attempted to capture the spirit of the participants in this event. This was a challenge due to the mass of people participating.
