North Belfast Banner Parade

North Belfast Orange Hall organised a banner parade on Friday 19 August. It is an opportunity to show off banners to the local community. Around seven banners were paraded accompanied by two marching bands.

The weather was very overcast and with shortening day light hours the lighting conditions were not that great. However the following images were captured by using increased ISO setting and with the help of a flash unit.

Afterwards tea and sandwiches were available to all in the hall, where I noticed an unusual banner hanging in the stair well of the hall depicting HMS Belfast, currently moored in the River Thames, London. These old banners are often painted to a much higher standard than new banners.
