OK, you didn’t expect this, right? :) I have added a few BW pics from this years carnival to the Notting Hill Carnival gallery, but here’s a colour set to show just how amazing and vibrant this event is. Now, it is important to say that most of my pictures come only from the very beginning of the festival where the local community gather very early in the morning for the unofficial opening - J’Ouvert . This is full of colour “fights”, dance and emotions  but also dirt and sweat. The carnival itself with all its feathers and glitter isn’t attracting me as much so you’ll have to look for other photographers who shoot that kind of stuff.
