5 Bucks

I went to the CNE on Tuesday night. After 5 in the evening it is only 5 bucks to get in. Which worked perfectly for me because I really just wanted to photograph the midway in the evening.

I wasn't the only one with that idea. There was a photography club out with a bunch of really big expensive cameras and tripods. It was kind of interesting watching them set up for their perfect shots. Me, I just wandered and shot. No tripod (though I may bring one next year) but I was able to find enough fences and garbage cans to provide stability when I needed it.

Nothing says summer is ending like a midway on a clear evening:

I love the cross-eyed tigers! A good photographer makes all the difference in the world.

I love the 8th one down (the action shot). Beautiful. An electric butterfly.

A little disappointed there's no mulleted carny shot. But there's an Elvis, so all is forgiven.
