Some additional images from the Stock Show this year.





When we walked up, this young man was trying to get his cowboy hat back from his pig. He showed me the damage the pig inflicted.

Love the shots, Jer!!! My particular favorite is the Avalanche pic. Kewl!!!

That kid dressed up like the llama is priceless (the guitar is a nice touch).

Great Fair photos, some of the best I've seen. The last one is complete with the people in the foreground, great image!!

Thank you Nancy and Joe.

I got a strange green cast in the two kid's pictures. I think it was the sodium lighting in the swine building coupled with the radiant heaters in the ceiling. The rest of the colors are about right.

Very nice shots Jerry. I love that last one.
I wanted to go out there Saturday but then decided to stay home and cough up a lung instead.

Thanks Jake, hope you are feeling better.

Good shots Jerry... the llama in #4 is a very natty dresser! I always enjoy pictures of kids doing something other than sitting in front of a TV or computer game... thanks for sharing.

What were your settings for the night shots of the lights?

Some really nice shots from a fun outing. Agree with Nance re the Avalanche shot.

I like these shots Jerry. The midway shots are real good. That young man looks pretty happy about the hat eating pig! haha!!

Thanks all, I appreciate your nice comments.

Steve, for the after dark shots, I usually shoot at F4 and dial the shutter speed for the scene until my camera reports 0EV. It's usually 1 to 2 seconds depending on the light. If I want more blur, such as for a moving ride, I'll go to F8, which lenghtens the shutter speed requirement by a second or so. Tripod and remote release.

Howdy Jerry,

Those really turned out well.

I really like the one with the Kid whose Pig ate his hat!


The Midway shots turned out very nice

Jerry, I hope you don't mind if I throw a few in here. I figured it's all the same show and you have a great start!
