Last weekend, the candidates for this year's Miss Twilight pageant were chosen. A virtual casting call was held, where interested women could submit their information and photos to the organizers. Subsequently, three in-person castings took place, the last one being the final casting, where the sashes were awarded to the selected candidates. The three in-person castings were held at a charming hotel in the city center. The Eco Boutique Hotel boasts beautiful facilities and is very elegant. The final casting was held on the second floor, in a small room. I arrived half an hour early to take photos at my leisure. Although the room filled up quickly, with quite a few people present, it wasn't very large, so there were even people in the hallway. ---- > El pasado fin de semana se eligieron las candidatas para esta nueva edición de Miss Twilight.

Llegué con antelación, media hora antes de la hora prevista, para poder tomar fotos con tranquilidad. Aunque el espacio se llenó rápidamente, con bastante gente presente, la sala no era muy grande, así que incluso había gente en el pasillo. ![IMG_20260509_124230_056.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jcrodriguez/EoeGLGXN1vnxkkjoMaBETas4EpPrgkAS29xdZwaMw7phwXPwSqUUqrvFNK7iUxYqMaA.jpg) ![IMG_20260509_133524_165.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jcrodriguez/Ep7wYZdCrAi3M6s12HngL8gwpZKicHK9p3Sftwu4AaDxRV1FaTkgKEboEA7spZB6F5r.jpg) ![IMG_20260509_134650_941.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jcrodriguez/EpJZWmbzU5SNC5srT5cYWk42oRd1KPmZRB9f9sKpMwwF4hoZxPWKWsd58v8CuUtcRm7.jpg) ![IMG_20260509_150722_794.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jcrodriguez/EoiY8S9HditbX89d2f5fEgebJ5d4URi3Xrcx4whtis8cnAsypDaeT7CZcWGVfwN3VxX.jpg) |||| |-|-|-| ![IMG_20260509_125245_235.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jcrodriguez/23xKxZT3nSWNqFyAsYoqdkSv3ufyGqPJ1ZqPYdBTgeeGZ88h9UGBTWCnKqcSV12xuX37p.jpg)|![IMG_20260509_145902_946.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jcrodriguez/23xp6mQPF9tB2voarkdZD8ss2cmkiija2K53aWKkZ77cNkuMd7E4mtw6k9i5ibJ2dGztk.jpg) ||

The entire space was already decorated. The sashes were laid out on the table where the judges would sit. There were a total of four judges. Among them were one of the first participants from the pageant's early editions, a designer, and one of the event's sponsors. The girls attending the casting were all dressed in black. Some seemed very nervous; it was their first time participating in an event like this, and they also felt the pressure of having an audience present. Each girl went up on stage, and after introducing herself, each judge asked her several questions. Others seemed more confident, as they had experience, having participated in other pageants or having been part of a modeling academy. There were also participants from different generations; one was still in high school, and another was already a lawyer. The media, online news outlets, and special guests were attentive to each participant, taking photos and recording videos of these moments. ---- > Todo el espacio ya estaba decorado.

I took the opportunity to take more photos. While we enjoyed the break, the organizer spoke with the judges to determine who would be selected and who would be assigned each sash. The sashes represent the municipalities of Lara state. The call was made, and the director of the organization called each participant, indicating which sash they would receive, which was then placed on them. They posed for the cameras. All the selected participants were very excited, and now it was time to prepare. They would receive classes in public speaking, parade walking, diction, etc., to perfect their skills. After everyone received their sashes, we went down to the hotel lobby to take some more photos. I hope the organizers will keep you informed about the news and activities of the competition, whose final gala is scheduled for about two months from now. ---- > Hicimos una breve pausa para degustar los tequeños y pasteles de Pasapalos Rodríguez, la empresa patrocinadora, y también tomamos café o jugo.
