Cambo the Clown

[Celebration]

1. Oh, fun!

Are those green baseball bats in the clown's basket? That is quite the outfit.

That second dog pic is wonderful

[alfredo]

2. Yeah, those are bats. Cambo has been in the clown business for nearly forty years.

He studied at Ringling Bros.

This past summer:

The girl was the focus of this image, but you can see how the kids react around him.

Thanks. That dog image was pure luck.

[Celebration]

5. Great candids aren't pure luck

They are only part luck! I love candids. And no, you can't tell animals what to do, LOL.

[alfredo]

6. Well, knowing the right place and time is part of taking candids. Crowds are easy because of the

number of potential subjects, and the information overload of the subjects.

I wish I would have thought of changing to sequential shooting. Write time made me miss some images during the parade.

3. Nice shots alfredo. The third has a very haunting quality to it.

Kind of a Depression era feel.

Cambo is a great subject, cool pic of him on his bike.

[alfredo]

4. Thanks. That's why I went B&W with that image. I added a bit of

film grain too.

7. Great! Simply great!

Americana. Love them!

The 3rd one speaks to me.

[alfredo]

9. Thanks that one was the one I wanted to work the most.

[trusty elf]

8. They'll all fine shots.

I, too, am especially drawn to the third one.

10. Thanks
