That's a great set of photos, looks like a fun occasion all round.


Thanks Bob.  Yes, it is a lot of fun.  I usually spend most of my time 
there dancing at Mr. Fezziwig's Christmas party, but there are a lot of 
shows, merchants selling a wide variety of wares, and some surprisingly 
good food for such a venue, not to mention street theater all over the 
place. In addition to the shows I photographed we also had a nice tea at 
Cuthbert's and saw a show called Naughty French Postcards that Bruce 
would have loved.  Unfortunately, photography is not allowed at NFP, but 
it's quite well done. There are a couple of actors on the stage doing 
some generally humorous dialogue in front of a scrim.  Every couple of 
minutes the lights will go down in front of the scrim and come up behind 
the scrim showing a scene with several actors posed, often evoking 
various classical paintings.




And if this isn't Leonard Rossiter then my name's not Dick Van Dyke.

Since that's my friend Jeremy, I afraid that means you're not Dick Van

Since we were discussing the 55-300 in another thread, here are a bunch
of photos from Dickens Fair yesterday. The closeup photos of the singers
were shot with Nicole's DA 55-300:

The wide shots were mostly shot with my DA 15-30/2.8 and my walkaround
lens for the rest of the day was my Tamron 28-75/2.8.

The singers are a group called Brass Farthing, and the morris dancers
are a team called Pipe and Bowl. I did have fun on some of the photos
of the morris dancers by photographing them at ridiculously slow shutter
speeds.

I apologize for not picking out one or two, but while I'm generally
pleased with the set I don't have any particular favorites. As always
comments and constructive suggestions are appreciated.

A very nice GESO, Larry. Must have been a wonderful evening. Hard to find 
that sort of thing in SA now. We do still have the Jubilee Morrismen in 
Jo'burg, which Iv'e seen a couple of times. Quite a complex dance form. I 
think you'd make a splendid Morrisman - you could always be the one with the 
Asses head to keep it incognito!
