These are some photos from a Busker Festival held annually in CHCH in January of each year. These are from 2010. Each performance was a creation to share with the audience. I created each image by attending with my camera, composing and capturing the scene. Now I create a blog post to share them with you.
Create a mood, a scene, an event, an emotion.

The first picture made me say ‘Ouch!’
Yes it definately has that response for most people 🙂
Great photos!
Thankyou.
Great shots! I agree about shot 1!
Thanks, yes #1 very much evoked a response from the audience. What I loved about these particular acrobats is their facial expressions, they really got into the performance, and gave it everything.
Lovely!
Thankyou

Those flames are amazing! Great pictures.
Thankyou, my first go at shooting that type of image in the dark. Had to use my tripod and experiment with shutterspeeds. Most of the good ones are just lucky!
Absolutely fantastic shots! How did you know to be in exactly the right place at the right time? Which lenses did you use for these shots, please?
I used my 70-200F4 IS L lens for all these shots, and as they were public performances I took the space I could find when I got there and took my chances with the shots.
It was more about being there at all than being in a specific place.
That first shot made me laugh
They later did the splits so were more than flexible enough but I was amused that they incorparated the move into their show.
Wow truly Entertaining 🙂
Very much so, thanks 🙂
beautiful pictures that depict the theme better than I ever could!
And, lovely words to go with it!
