Spent a few hours at a local festival today. Once again, not impressed with the results, but wanted to share a few of the better ones. Still working on trying to get sharp images. C&C welcome.
1. These gentlemen looked interesting and probably have many years worth of great stories. Regret not shooting at a smaller aperture.

2. This little boy was helping his mother get some rice from an old style rice cooker. He turned and posed for my friend. I liked how his left hand was also holding out two fingers.

3. A large group of entertainers were preparing to start a march. We waited for a few minutes and decided to move on. I tend to shoot wide so I decided to focus a little closer and grabbed this.

4. There were a lot of families lined up at the top of this hill flying kites. I ended up buying one for my daughters.

5. This doll had just finished playing some drums. She gave a few smiles while she was playing, that I missed, but gave me this hint of a smile as she passed by.

6. A man and a teen practiced gathering and throwing water using an old water gathering technique.

7. These kids were so excited to play the drums!

8. I grabbed this shot of an elderly woman trying her hand at the drums. About 15 seconds sooner and I might have had a much better shot.

9. Saw this couple, which I found unusual, sporting some motorcycle attire.

10. Not thrilled about the from-behind-shot, I asked to take their portrait.

11. This gentleman had the look of many years of life in his eyes and on his face. I regret shooting wide open and missed the focus, which I did manually.

As always, not looking for anything I can't learn from. I shot a series last weekend, mostly at 2.8 so I tried to stay around 5.6-8.0, but it seems it still just wasn't enough.
Thanks for looking - Kevin
