The South Carolina State Fair

2009.10.25








The fair grounds in Columbia is right across the street from the University of South Carolina football stadium.


Psst! Can you help me get out of here?



Natalie decides to try flying.

Approaching the speed of sound.

revenant State fairs are known even to us poor Europeans - there was an article about State Fair foods in The Economist. This one looks like fun!

revenant Forgot to add: the warp nine and motion blur ones are very good.

smbunation It was quite overcast I can see. That usually can go one way or the other for these types of shots. I like your take though and I like shot twelve.

miltonjacob so lovely. it must have been a gr8 fun with all those interesting items.
miltonjacob · 2009-10-27: 16:25
Wasichseh What a great fair. Very nice how you captured a lot of very different details. Most of the time I use the bracketing function of my camera.
Normal- under -overexposure. sometimes it`s easier to take the sky for the right exposure and to brighten up the dark parts with PS (or equal).
Wasichseh · 2009-10-27: 16:59
dreadwear Lovely set! I think I like #2 best.
