ok I watched meet me in st. louis a few too many times as a child.
We had so much fun going with the moodys and Matt and Sawyer at the fair this year! Max thought it was so cool and LOVED the rides... except for the tea cup-esq ride that Matt almost made us puke on... we forgive him. Anyway, you can't beat fair food and friends and I loved seeing everything through Max's eyes. I also to a bajillion pictures (consider yourself forewarned!) because I wanted to practice using my camera at night with the fun lights. Please excuse the 80 pictures of the ferris wheel. Just playin with shutter speed and some various types of processing.
{for the photo curious, I had my ISO at 2000-3200 , shutter at 100, f 1.8-2.8. I did NOOOOT use a FLASH. ever. Because that was the whole point).






















I love these pictures! and the fair.
ReplyDeletelove all of them.
ReplyDeletei'm so sad we didn't make it to the fair. i don't know why i forgot to go?
who is the beautiful little girl with you? she is amazing, I want to kiss her face off. It looks like a homeless person dressed her, but.... Seriously, she should be a model. jk. I'm so glad you took these pictures, I hate missing these things.
ReplyDeleteGreat pics. One day I will get serious about taking pictures..........one day maybe my pictures will look like yours......maybe.
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a great time at the fair.
I love your fair picts! And I appreciate the comments about how you shot them - did you photoshop them at all? Or are all of the amazing colors because of the high ISO and that it was night? Thanks for giving the rest of us a tip!! :-)
ReplyDeleteI don't comment much on your blog when I come to visit, but I really like the fair pictures, and the painting pictures. I remember going to that fair as a child, and your pictures bring back many memories. Thanks for my walk down memory lane. You have a beautiful family.
