Every year ARF Dashnaktsutyun is organizing a torchlight procession from Matenadaran to the Armenian Genocide Memorial. They start from burning the Turkish flag and images of some politicians and proceed with a march singing patriotic songs and rising torches. I'm not the party's supporter and i don't generally approve their actions, however the procession was interesting to attend and take photos. It was heavily raining and my feet were all wet so I didn't go till the end. Interestingly, even though there were thousands of people, I managed to meet some friends in the crowd :)
Here are some of my photos:
Here are images from my photo agency. (not to compare :D) Btw, they are now featured in many international news outlets including the
NY Times ;)
