great series of shots. I may have to revisit these in winter to remind me of warm weather

Thanks, Howie! I think I will be doing that, too! ;

You sure you didn't sneak over to the Minnesota State Fair? ; They have a similar milk bar and butter sculpures.

Now in Indiana, we have shakes, ice cream and grilled cheese at the Dairy Barn, and a giant cheese sculpture.


Say "cheese"

 

[Scottwdw]

I now that cheese lady. ; She's been to our Fair, too.

I think many dairy state fairs do butter sculptures. ; Fun tradition.

Each day at the NYS Fair they have two free with admission concerts at Chevrolet Court. ; They range from country to rap artists. ; Last Saturday, Phil Vassar was on stage performing. ; I used the 28-300VR lens as last year they kept me away from the stage with the 70-200VR.

Thank you, Sir! ; With the close of Labor Day weekend, the unofficial end of summer is here. ; While I know schools in other parts of the country have started, this week my area heads back to school. ; Families gear up for fall activities and high school sports start up.

Hope everyone enjoyed my summer thread. ; I am ready for my "what I did all summer" essay!

Here is another when I was able to sneak away for a little bit. I Love Florida in the summer. There is nothing more beautiful!

My summer vacation was after Labor Day too. I spent 3 weeks in Austria, Switzerland, and Germany. Here's the cathedral in Salzburg, Austria.

Beautiful shot, Erich. ; Don't you love this kind of "point and shoot" location? ; (No matter where you point and shoot, you get a great shot.)

 

[ELinder]

Yeah, it's hard to take a bad photo in that church, or in that city.

I'm just now getting around to processing my photos from this summer. ; Here's one from MotoGP's annual visit to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. ; American rider Ben Spies hangs off of his Ducati.


Hang on
