Best 4th July photo I've seen in ages. Good work :thumbup:Early 4th of July crowd at the Gasworks Park. Thanks for looking. Cheers, Matt.

Great portrait and pp, Rayyan. Not sure about the black background though.
Rayyan: Thank you! (insert big smile here) The fireworks would be behind where I'm standing to take the photo in about another 1-1/2 hrs. My fireworks photos are in the garbage (apparently focusing is important!)I too can see the goose chasing the bear..or the other way around..
Matt: This is good event capture. Where are the fireworks?
Rayyan: +1, very nice. :thumbup:Again, Rayyn. A beauty of a beauty!
Lloyd: Thank you, my friend! (insert big smile here)I really like the choice of b/w here. Big crowd! :thumbup:
Corlan: Thanks. These are the primo seats. The water's just behind me. Those people in front probably got there in the morning. It rained earlier and then nothing but high clouds during the fireworks. The two with the scrabble board look like they're half asleep.Love these two, Matt.
Especially the first one, with the very appropriate treatment and framing, you transport us back to the great festivals of the 70's.
Not quite though, sign of modern times is surpinsingly less the clothing (under relatively bad weather?) than how so many people seems looking down. Irony of our consumer communications era?
(though at least in one case it seems to be a good ol' fashionned Scrabble board...)
Well done!
Jorgen: Thank you!!!Best 4th July photo I've seen in ages. Good work :thumbup:
Tim: Nice capture in B & W. :thumbup: I haven't been to a State Fair in a while. Actually, I'm not sure that we have one. There's a County Fair, but, it's way too commercial. I bet the Maine state Fair's really cool.
Wow. Loving the look of these. :thumbup:A couple more in color (since, I don't have any actual fireworks photos). Thanks for looking. Cheers.
Jorgen, Matt: Thank you both for your kind words. Jorgen, I know it is Kitsch but the black bg seemed the best to me at that moment.Great portrait and pp, Rayyan. Not sure about the black background though.
Matt: To me the color version seems to capture more of the feel of the occasion more than the bw version. But that's just me. Well captured.A couple more in color (since, I don't have any actual fireworks photos). Thanks for looking. Cheers.

MATT: Thanks for your comment! The State Fairs (several held each year in different parts of the state) have become more like what I think of as carnivals. A bit seedier with a higher proportion of fried dough to 4-H animals than the "country" fairs held later in the Fall. Kids seem to like them, but I find my tolerance for trash gets smaller each year.Tim: Nice capture in B & W. :thumbup: I haven't been to a State Fair in a while.
