Not at all, keep them coming. I like the shots with the different backgrounds best but they are all good.

Thanks Scott

The Whitby Gothic Weekend is a twice-yearly festival for Goths, in Whitby, North Yorkshire, England.
The first festival was held in 1994, and it was held annually until 1997, when it became a twice-yearly event - generally held in April and October/November. Whitby was chosen in part because it features in Bram Stoker's Dracula as well as inspiring it.
It has now grown into one of the most popular gothic events in the world, attracting attendees from across the UK and around the world. Most of the events are held at the town's 1,000 capacity Spa Pavilion, however, other venues such as The Metropole Hotel are used for overspill and unofficial events. Accommodation is normally fully booked up well in advance.
Although referred to as a "weekend" it includes events during the day on Friday and fringe events on the Thursday and Monday. The event always sells out and many more people attend than there are tickets available, resulting in booming business for Whitby pubs such as The Angel and The Elsinore.

All the best Alan

Boy, my wife and I would love an event like this. Me to photograph (I'd rather see than be seen) and both of us because we are Dracula fans.
How did you arrange the shots?

Hi Scott

The Goths generally meander all around the town. I found myself a well lit location with a good background and waited for the Goths to walk in too my patch

Generally while I was framing and organising the subjects, the other photographers who were too nervous to ask would sneak a shot over my shoulder. It was all in good spirit though. A great day
