I like the colorful concession stand at the festival. However, the flags are backwards and not so colorful from that side. You might be better off cropping off the flags and focusing on just the concession stand - something like this. Posted: 03/03/2023 12:35:52

I can't resist this photo op. I've seen this scene so many times in other parts of the country and I wonder if it is all one company. It is color and it is Americana. I would have been inclined to crop on the sides but, on the other hand, I might have included even more of the flavor of the county fair scene. Posted: 03/15/2023 21:50:24

Such a great scene; love the colors. You have wonderful focus and clarity. I agree with David's crop, but I think you could leave a little more on both sides as long as you crop out the woman in the black coat to the far right. This would make a beautiful jigsaw puzzle! Posted: 03/16/2023 09:39:58

All the fun of the fair. I agree with Cindy that removing the people to the right improves the image and leaves the magic number of five people. Great colours and a good story, everything you want in an image. Posted: 03/16/2023 10:41:22

Nice Bright colors, very festival!
I'm incline to crop out the top flags as mentioned above, but for sure, crop out the lady at the far right, as she's walking away, face away, not as participating to this scene as other folks. Posted: 03/19/2023 12:27:10

The image captures the festive atmosphere. I do not have any further to comment. Posted: 03/30/2023 10:49:21
