I love to watch people.

The question of the day.  Who goes to the fair?  I am so glad that I  have a new lens for my camera that enables me to take pictures at longer range.  It isn't that I want to sneak up on people but I see more "normal every day" expressions when I can shoot from farther away.  So, here are examples of who goes to our little, small town, home town, county fair.

My Own Front Door, leads to the County Fair

Who goes to the fair ?.. Edition One. 

I was going to call this Fair Faces............. 

Wandering around the fair with my camera around my neck with the intent of capturing interesting faces.  

 

 

 

 But then I realized, that some of my FAVORITE shots from the night, weren't really just faces. 

 

Faces of Summer 2014

About halfway through our summer.  Faces tell so much. 

Read for yourselves.....

I love photography.  Something about it is very fulfilling to my heart.  I am completely untrained but just enjoy the sometimes very surprising results.  If I could set out with one goal in what I do, to someday know this quote could apply to me would be beautiful, not for myself but to give future generations a glimpse of the goodness, the energy, the ups and downs of the life we are living in THIS moment in time.
