Miss Silka Dumaguete 2014 – Coronation Night

July 27, 2014/in 2014, Galleries

The decision who represents Dumaguete in November at the Miss Silka Philippines 2014 contest is felt. The Miss Silka Dumaguete Coronation Night was successfully held on Saturday, July 26-2014 at Luce Auditorium. Despite the ridiculous rules for entering this “wanna-be-something-better-but-are-actually-not” place, we were able to get at least a few shots on the hard-drive. Having never attended ( for good reason) this educational facility, we could not know that flash-lights are prohibited – for a reason no one could explain us- so we needed to adjust some stuff before getting ready to shoot.

Miss Silka 2014 Production Number

After the production number the 14 lovely candidates got in their swim-suit and impressed with their pure beauty in golden bikinis. The actual competition was already held a few weeks back at The Oasis (Florentina Homes)

Of course the lovely candidates needed some time to change into their evening gowns, so there were some intermission numbers. One of the teenage girls in the audience had here certainly the time of her (rather short up to now) life and got brought on stage by Bryan Termulo, runner-up in Pinoy Pop Superstar Year 3. And we can tell her heart was making some extra beats. Surely many teenage girls in the audience would have given more than 30 Peso load to change with her.

Blue was the color of the evening for the Miss Silka Dumaguete 2014, and all looked stunning in their gowns.

After the presentation in evening gowns the Top 5 of lasts years competition entered the stage and it was time to pass the crowns to the new Miss Silka Dumaguete and the runner ups.

June 24, 2014/in 2014

The Tourism Road Show set another Highlight of the celebrations of the Looc Fiesta 2014. Some heavy rain during the afternoon caused some delay in the stage-preparation and caused a 90 minutes delay for the show to start. It didn’t stop the enthusiastic performers and audience to have a great evening. The location was full of cheers and smiles, enjoying a very entertaining night in Looc. Thanks to Dumaguete Tourism for creating the Tourism Road Show and of course all performers and organizers involved.

While usually the big events are for good reason are in the focus of the public, we are always happy to drop by when smaller celebrations are held. During the Summer Festival 2014 in Batinguel the DINS Team visited a few events which were not in the spotlight of any media. Of course we took some snapshots of the competitions and want to share them with our website visitors.

Cock Fighting

The fun part was that -other to regular cock-fighting- in this competition all rooster were at the same time in the pit and the last cock standing is the winner. It was also a smart one, as he was standing in the corner until there were only 2 or 3 opponents were left but already exhausted.

Pole Climbing and Sack Hopping

During the pole climbing the participants tried all kind of techniques. Some used rugs and sand to get a better grip, others build 4 men high pyramids but nobody could get to the top. When everybody was ready to give up, a young guy came and climbed alone to the top like he never did anything else in his life before.

Dumaguete Tourism Roadshow

The Dumaguete Tourism Roadshow was truly a Highlight of the Batinguel Summer Festival. The Dumaguete Tourism Office organized a colorful event with many games, show and music. Very well done and highly entertaining! Only the audience appeared a little bit reserved and the artists on stage deserved a bit more appreciation than the Batinguel audience gave this evening.

The Sumer Festival in Batinguel 2014 was a great success. A big Thank You to the organizers of the Barangay and the Dumaguete Tourism Office.

Batinguel Doble Kara Singing Contest 2014

May 16, 2014/in 2014

The Summer Festival of Barangay Batinguel started May 15 2014 with the Doble Kara Singing contest. It was the kick off for the week long celebration of the barangay Festa. Barangay Capatain Nicolas Ramirez, proudly declared the festival as opened.

The Participating Purok 7 of the Barangay Batinguel also give their time and show talent for dancing.

Thank you so much to the barangay officials who invites us to witness the show.

Miss Tinago 2014

April 30, 2014/in 2014

A Tuesday evening can’t be spend much better than visiting a beauty contest. In this case, we went to Barangay “Uno” to witness the Miss Tinago 2014 Beauty Pageant . The Gym in the Barangay was packed when the contest Miss Tinago 2014 took off. Each of the seven contestants had their supporters in the audience cheering their lungs out. That certainly pushed them to give their very best on the catwalk.

The organizers allowed the DINS-Team to get a sneak-peak at the backstage area, so we are able to share some of the pictures which are usually hidden from the public eye.

While the Miss Dumaguete or similar “elite” contests attract all VIPs and local star-photographers, for us the smaller contests have a very special charm to it and the DINS-Team gladly covers those events. At this point one more big “Thank You” to the organizers of Barangay Uno to invite us. The Miss Tinago 2014 was a great event and we hope everybody enjoyed our pictures, like we enjoyed the contest.
