" Delta Fair "

Uploaded: September 09, 2007

Description

The program guide said they would have a fireworks display at dusk on Saturday. It was cloudy and a threat of rain but there was still some texture in the sky, so I put on my Cokin blue grad and shot this pano. The fire works didn't start until later at night so I had to place them in the photograph. Delta fair Memphis Tennessee. 5 photographs.

I love this shot. I love the lights from the rides and the vending booth. The added fireworks in a neat sky add so much "flare" to the shot, infact they are what really drew me to the photo.

What a nice way to sum up all the fun to be had at the fair.

This shot should be the advertising shot for next years fair. #734422
