Cover for Kid's Parade book by Don Moreland 

The Faces Of This Year's Festivals

By Stephen Weir

For the past two-weeks photographer Don Moreland has been pouring over the thousands of photographs that he and his team of photographers took at this year’s Toronto Caribbean Carnival Grand Parade, the Children’s Parade and the King and Queen Competition.  By this weekend his first copies of his coffee table photography books about the just completed carnival will begin to roll off the presses.

“I am quite proud of our parade photographs. There were three of us taking pictures for the book. We spread ourselves around the route and got every section in each of the eleven bands that took part in the parade,” Don Moreland told the Camera. “If you went down the road this year, your photograph is in all likelihood in our Grand Parade photography book.  The same holds true for the Kiddies Parade and the King and Queen Show.”

 “ Each book is over 100 pages long.  There were 11 bands, so each Mas Camp gets coverage of at least 8 pages of photographs,” explained Don Moreland.

Moreland has works closely with the Mas camps and in the next week will supply them with copies of the book.  This week’s Camera has information on how to order the books as well. See the ad below:
