Some times five minutes is all you get! A brief rest during a body-paint parade gave me a chance of photographing two of the models. Brick wall by a sidewalk, shooting with my phone, their phone, my camera, dodging passersby… you get the idea.

As part of a Costa Rican African American Culture festival (Festival Flores de la Diáspora Africana), and at the beat of carnival percussion bands, I got to watch a very colorful parade of body paint models. On my next post I will show photos of the parade but here I want to show the photos of the five minutes long photo session (I checked the photos EXIF)… with a little help from post processing.

This link to my Google Photos site will allow you to get higher resolution files. You can also follow the models on Instagram: @norias95 and @lina_carabali_b

If you like these, check out tomorrow my next post with the parade photos!
