Through The Lens 145 – Tractor Pull

The antique tractor pull was one of my favorite events at the fair and provided lots of panning practice over the years.  Sadly, they dropped this event a few years back.

Happy Friday!

Through The Lens 144 – Fair Food

Fair Food

I haven’t photographed the Frederick Fair in a couple of years, and the weather may not cooperate this year, so we’ll dig into the archives for one of my favorites from years past.  I was walking back to my car after photographing the midway at night and this food vendor caught my eye. Thought it would look nice in black and white.

Through The Lens 93 – Horse Power!

Horse Power!

Here’s one from the Archives.  The Horse Pull at the Great Frederick Fair is a tradition the first Friday of the fair. While it is no longer held at the Grandstand, it is still a fun event.  It is incredible seeing the excitement of the horses as they approach the sled. These workhorse breeds are impressive equine athletes.

14th New Jersey Monument at Sunrise on the 150th Anniversary.  I managed to get a couple of photos early the morning of the anniversary before heading to work.

The 153rd anniversary on the Battle that Saved Washington is this coming Sunday.

14th New Jersey Monument - Sunrise

Since tomorrow is the 152nd Anniversary of the Battle of Monocacy, I thought I’d share one from the archives – Sunrise at the 14th New Jersey Regiment Monument taken on the morning of the 150th Anniversary, July 9th, 2014.
