I also like those desturated portraits (especially the first 5).

In addition to two WR lenses you need Bong WR. :-)

June 19 was the birthday of the Philippines' national hero, Jose
Rizal, and I was there...

I cornered some of the participants preparing for reenactment scenes
and shot impromptu portraits and then shot the night shots in the
rain.  The K-5, DA 18-55 WR & DA 50-200 WR did well; I was sick for
the next couple of days... :-|

Very fine job with the partially desaturated portraits.

The full color shots are also  up to your annoyingly high standards.
