Here are two more stunning images captured at the 2011 Day of the Dead Procession in downtown Tucson. I heard that many people liked the new route much better this year. I hope you enjoy these amazing faces - filled with mystery & emotion. Photos courtesy of Chance Agrella.
It used to be mostly Mexicans who did this day in 1952. I remember most had a casual interest in it but the schools didn't close down or anything.
