A Motley Crew

2008.05.15

Wonder if it was the Plague or the smoking?

Scary dude

Renaissance Man ;)

Poet

Comedy and Tragedy

At least he's carrying a big stick! ;)

Traveling musician

Man in a tree

Treebeard - the man who is a tree.

For Jack, who is a big Motley Crue fan.

The director kept telling people not to stare (because it wasn't natural). I thought that was funny since that's exactly why most people go to the faire - to stare at the spectacle!

Kind of interesting to see but also annoying because they left their cameras and cranes behind and they got into some photos and ruined the "old" feel.

When I was at the Renaissance Faire, there was filming going on for a television show starring Tommy Lee and Ludacris. It was for Battleground Earth, a new show on Discovery's soon to be launched Planet Green Network .

If you watch it, you might get to see some of the people I've posted on my blog.

I love the way you capture their expressions—the poet is my favorite. Beautiful series.

The 1st guy is way too scary for me!! Like the guy in the tree I think he is kind of cute?? Don't know Motley Crew?? Yes I live in a cave.
Great portraits!! They should have hired you to film you would do worlds better!!!

Love the expression in "Comedy and Tragedy."

Expressive and colourful portraits (as yours invariably are). Love the "renaissance man". Nice captions throughout.

great portraits of renaissance men :) glorious colors, have a little preference for #8 :)

sandmoon · 2008-05-16: 12:50

Your witty commentary adds much fun to these great portrait shots. Good laughs while admiring your talent. Was that a double entendre in #6?

LastFrontier · 2008-05-16: 14:21

Super Set

flemspar · 2008-05-16: 17:57

what a day! I find the mix of new and old rather amusing in some of those shots..particularly #3..
On another note, your camera work is absolutely flawless. Such sharp detailed images, especially evident in 4 and 5. Composition, color, expression..its all there.
