The challenge this week is to capture a fleeting moment on the street. These photos are from Puerto Vallarta, where every Sunday evening at 5:00, a band plays in the central plaza and the locals dance, forgetting their troubles for a fleeting moment.
I love Latins – they dance way into their senior years. It doesn’t get any better than that.
Great entry for the challenge.
Love it …..
Thanks Isadora. Thanks for stopping in and commenting.
Fantastic captures!!
Thank you! This was such an incredible moment to see, and be a little part of.
Classic street photography!!! Cheers Nonoy Manga
Thanks! I appreciate your taking the time to comment, and for stopping by.
I love it when couples remain romantic through the years. The dancing is so graceful and inviting. Love it! Have a beautiful weekend.
Glad you’ve enjoyed this one. Some of the music was graceful and some dramatic…it was wonderful; and it was wonderful to see these older couples still enjoying a dance together. Hope you’re weekend has been great.
What is the occasion? So, so joyful!
Hi e….this is just a weekly event in the main plaza of Puerto Vallarta with the PV band playing music. The locals take the opportunity to make it a dance as well. All free, no tickets or admission fee
Wonderful!

Thanks Jake. Glad you like it.
I love these photographs. You have captured something a bit special here, it’s great that the local people just come out into the street to get together and dance. Thanks for sharing. Dee
Thanks so much for your comments Dee. It did feel special; I wanted to dance with my husband, but felt it was for the local couples, and I didn’t want to intrude. It was lovely to just sit and watch.
What a wonderful series – Oh yes – a spontaneous fleeting moment is one of the best I guess – Great photographs
