Nothing compares to the sheer beauty of the celebration of Yemanjá on the 2nd of February in Bahia. I want to share it with you, all question and comments are welcome

Beautiful footage.    I'm guessing social distancing was not required when this was shot.

Yeah, by now I really think it strange to see so many people at one place.
You get used to a lot quickly. Don't know it that's good or sad...

Excellent job!

Thank you! It was exactly one year ago, we were free as birds back then...

You're very welcome.    Stay safe and have a great day.

Wow. The crowds were out in force!  Not much social distancing there

Very nice! You reversed the footage at the beginning. The boats gave it away

Hey mate, as the video states the footage is from exactly one year ago and hence pre-pandemic.

I bet it was much quieter this year then

Very nice, and interesting to see the celebration of the Sea Goddess. This year, it's cancelled, due to the Covid-19. So will it wait until 2022?

You caught me! I had to because of the cloud shadow rolling in, but then I figured it actually fits quite well since we were kinda going back in time, you know?

That was quite a festive occasion. Love the music.

It will have to! Let us hope this will remain the only year we won t be able to do it.

Maybe later on the year, it can be celebrated, even that the celebration belongs to beginning of Feruary!

Unfortunately no, the goddess is deeply tied to february 2nd in Bahia

I can see, that they actually have celebrated in a reduced form, somewhere.

Thanks for the link! The thing about this celebration is that it is a pilgrimage so the agglomeration is kind of the whole point. What most of us did is to take a moment, go to a beach by ourselves or with our familie and make our offering to Yemanjá that way..:/
