Took these today, partly for a friend who is one of the festival organizers and partly to practice some action shots. They're a bunch of amateurs who were doing some expo for the festival.

Nice shots as always Rebecca. I notice a few of them in sweatshirts. It was a bit chilly today eh? I didn't know about that expo. If you head up this way for any more shoots, shoot me a PM (I'm in Aurora).

Oh yeah... ten minutes after I got there it clouded over, the wind picked up, and my fingers stiffened up. Someone emceeing the dog races cracked that the Summerset Festival had suddenly turned into the Winterset Festival. I wanted to stick around for the advanced skaters, but it just got too cold with the wind and the light jacket.

This wasn't really a very planned shoot.. it just occurred to me that I was going to be the only one at the bank who didn't show up to this thing, and since I work with the festival president it would have been bad form. Now I can walk in tomorrow and tell him that not only did I make an appearance, but here's a CD of photos for him... just give me photo credit, please ;)

Karma-- I tried to put a bit of 70's old style to it--
I think I went overboard--
Have a look.
