The celebration of the guardian saint of Catania, Sant Agata, takes place every year in the first week of february.
The pictures in this series are done in a rather small area of the city of Catania, around the Doumo and surrounding areas in the citys old centre during the time of this celebration in february 2009.

Magnum photographer David Alan Harvey merged his four existing blogs to one single with the beginning of 2009.

Santa for Everybody
Every year on a certain day in November several major streets in Toronto are filled with crowds of people. They come to greet Santa Claus and to participate in a very colorful parade. In reality it becomes celebration of coming winter. The crowd is diverse – people of different cultural and religious backgrounds, of all ages.
The series is about anticipation and preparations to the parade.
It is still in progress – each year brings a bit different understanding of this event.
Santa for Everybody from Kirill Surov is now online. Enjoy!
