Ayala Avenue, Makati City. 29 February 2008.

People perched atop the statue of Ninoy on the corner of Ayala and Paseo had one of the best views of the whole event (not counting the offices that were directly facing the intersection, of course). I wanted to get a better vantage point but unfortunately, street-level was all I was able to manage.

Pretty much every TV station had an elevated platform setup before the festivities kicked off; several camera jibs hovered over the crowds, and streets were crowded with OB vans and uplink trucks.

And of course, where there are crowds, there are street vendors. Rallying really gives one the munchies, after all. More images and commentary at my blog ...
