Thank you so much Ally! I will admit right away but I do love parades. I can't even explain it because most people don't care for them anymore, but I have this thing about parades and I actually prefer to photographed the parade maybe an hour or two before they start. It's interesting because there are practicing and getting dressed and stretching out if they're dancing. I think he gets a different look to the parade rather than people marching down the street. And I have never met anybody that didn't want to give a big cheesy grin to the camera down for which I'm very grateful.
The girls were very energetic and it is not the first parade that I have seen them in. The image that you are speaking of, the brass band in the red uniform with the Green Lantern's? That is actually the beginning of the parade as they were starting to lineup. They probably stood there for about a half hour and I went up and down the line photographing them oh, so that is probably why you got the different Expressions on the faces! I hadn't thought about it like that with the east meets west but that is exactly spot on!
I want to thank you for taking the time to stop in a leave some love.
#MarketFriday loves you! 💖
