Default Human bowling ball.......strike

We had a street faire in town today and I came across some fun things to try to
photograph just before dusk. The first is a young lady that has become a human
bowling ball........and they call this fun ??

bowling 1

Strike !!

bowling

and what street faire would be any fun without a rock wall ? This young lady scaled that wall like a spider, she was fast, love the look on her face.

and lastly these young men actually asked me to take their picture, and of course I
happily obliged. It was a fun evening. Now, I am off to drive all night to the airport, so
I figure if I have to be there at dawn there should be something fun to photograph...

Hi Mom, Looks like I missed a fun evening with you. I love these. The first two make me dizzy as well. i love how you caught the second one about exactly upside down. The rock wall girl looks very focused on her task at hand. Great shot. The last one cracks me up, these guys have no idea they are getting more then there five minutes of fame here on DPS.
All of the shots look great, looks like you worked out your bug after all.
Love ya, I hope you got some great shots at the airport.~

Thank you, it was a fun evening, almost too much to see and do. I couldn't imagine
trying that either, funny enough no one seemed dizzy when they got out, my head
would have been swimming, LOL

Thank you ! Wish you could have been here too, but it was HOT ! The guys were really funny, I didn't even know they were calling to me for the longest time, imagine my surprise after having cleared the skateboard park the day before. (I'm going back though, I'm determined, I'll wear a sign that says I am NOT the law, LOL ) I think the bug may really be
fixed,
