It’s the time for State and County Fairs, have you been to one yet this year?<\/span><\/p>\n

\"02_00A\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I took my Diana Mini<\/a> toy film camera to the midway this year. The midway is legalized madness. Lots of people, bright lights, the rides, the games of skill, the fair food.  Who can explain it all?<\/span><\/p>\n

\"05_2A\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Diana Mini has a half frame mode where you get two photographs on one frame. It’s kind of fun to see what the pairing are. I like the way the Ferris Wheel turned out. To me the Ferris wheel is the king of the midway. If you don’t have one of those, you don’t have a midway.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"09_6A\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I was just walking around shooting from the waist. It’s kind of hit or miss actually. There is a world of difference between raising a camera to your eye and just shooting from the waist. The EMT crew above had somebody on the gurney. I don’t know what the story is.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"21_18A\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The carousel and a small roller coaster were right next to each other.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"11_8A\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The not very well kept secret of the midway is that the people are the main attraction. Lots of people make fun of “Fair People” and I don’t know why. I mean if you know what a fair person looks like, then you are one also, right? <\/span><\/p>\n

\"27_24A\"<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
The food is outrageous. The donut burger is a burger with donuts used as the buns. How about deep fried Kool-Aid. Why, probably the same reason that I eat sea urchin sushi. Sure it tastes good but most of all I like seeing everybody’s else’s reaction when I eat it.<\/span><\/div>\n
