2011 New York Renaissance Faire

I have not been to this event in many, many years. ; This is a great place to see many shows and eat some good food! ;

Here is the bridge from the parking

As we entered the Faire, this beggar was tied up looking for some food!

These were for sale for women (men if you so choose) to wear on their heads

This dude sold pickles for $3, and would throw out every joke possible that might make some uncomfortable eating one of his treats.

My niece decided to rent a costume and was nice enough to pose for me

I forgot to mention that this was the first day using my repaired 55-300 mm lens. ; Pretty much used it all day.

Here is Arsene Dupin, a very sarcastic juggler.

This is Dextre Tripp, he pretty much spent the whole show balancing on something, here a ladder.

This owl was yelling at someone to my left during the Birds of Prey show.

Great shots. I really like the close up of the floral head pieces.

 

Dennis, Sylvia, thanks!! ; It was a great time!

 

We will be going to King Richard's Faire this Fall, looks like a similar event. ; Nice close up of the Owl.

 

Thanks! ; It helped that the owl was about 10 feet from me.
