Independence Day 2024

Antonio Cheltenham

As a proud Barbadian and a photographer with the Barbados Photographic Society, I was honoured to receive accreditation to capture the splendour of this year’s Independence Day parade. It was a truly memorable experience to witness and document such an important national occasion.  For those of us who had the privilege of documenting the event, it was more than just a chance to capture beautiful imagery; it was an opportunity to immortalize the spirit of a nation in celebration. The rich colors, the dignified procession, the faces of young and old alike, all told a story of progress, hope, and a shared vision for the future. As I look through the lens, I am reminded of the powerful symbol of Barbados – the pride of our independence, the triumph of our republic status, and the continuing journey of our people. This Independence Day, with its perfect weather and heartwarming atmosphere, was a day to remember, and I’m grateful to have been able to share in this special moment with my fellow Barbadians.
