Spirits of Fiesta from Above

Scroll through the above photos

By Fritz Olenberger

Every year at the Fiesta Pequeña rehearsal I take photos of the dancers from the roof of the Mission, on which I am given special access.

This year, due to the Mission being closed because of Covid-19, I am told it is unlikely that I will be able to stage such photos.  So, as the photographer for Old Spanish Days, I asked the Paseo Nuevo Senior
Marketing Director for permission to photograph the 2020 Spirit of Fiesta Alena Velasco and Junior Spirit Alexandra Nocker from the terrace next to the Center Stage Theater, looking down on the promenade below. 

This permission was granted, and I was able to capture these lovely and talented ladies dancing in their Fiesta attire.
