I enjoy “event” photography.  It is a way of taking candid pictures of people.  The expressions on their faces are spontaneous and relevant to the moment.  Last night was the Fourth of July Parade in Galveston.  The parade was on Seawall.  It started at 59th St. and went in to 25th.  We walked down to about 57th and got a good spot on the curb.  Once the parade started it was a general melee and people crowded into the street, mainly because most of those marching in the parade were throwing beads or candy.  In spite of the crowd, I was able to get some good shots of the people in the parade.

This was a little boy who was “dancing” to the music provided prior to the parade.

The expression of concentration on this woman’s face was great.

This woman was on the Yaga’s float.  She had a variety of small stuffed animals, and she would reach out with one and shake it back and forth.  she would then toss it to one of the children.

I Pirate relegated to driving a golf cart in a parade.
