The Making of 'Rusty':

It had bucketed down with rain during the morning and my Port Macquarie Panthers Camera Club mate Peter and I did not like our chances of getting some shots of the festival but as we sipped our coffee contemplating our next move, I spotted this couple working there way down the street through the crowd.

With my camera on the table always at the ready it was a matter of locking onto the subject and waiting for a gap in the crowd for an appropriate shot. As photographer's luck would have it the gap appeared right near my table which gave me the great angle.

Enjoy!

You've captured a great looking pair. With hats and glasses they look like movie stars.
