Christmas Parade: 2010

When Thanksgiving weekend arrives, the town of Westminster, Maryland decks-the-streets for the annual Christmas Parade. Attending the parade is a regular tradition for my family. This year we braved the cold and crowds with seven adults and five kids.

Ralphie and his trusty Red Rider Carbine-Action Air Rifle were not seen on the streets of Westminster, but I thought I heard Clark Griswold say... “We're gonna have the hap hap happiest christmas since Bing Crosby tap danced with Danny f*cking Kaye.” (Sorry for the language, I just couldn’t resist...lol)

These images were shot with a Canon 40D and a Canon EF 70-200mm f2.8L IS lens. This year I also brought along and used a Canon 580EX II Speedlite. That was a big rig to shoot with on a crowded street, but fun all the same. All the images were processed with Lightroom 3. I hope you enjoy the images. Happy Holidays!!

Christmas Parade: 2009

Back in November, during the Thanksgiving weekend, my hometown of Westminster, Maryland had their Christmas Parade. With kids in hand, I, along with my wife and her family, attended. Naturally, I took a camera and the following images are a few from that outing. All were shot with a Canon 40D and a Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS lens. No flash was used as I wanted to work with natural lighting. All the images were processed with Lightroom. Hey... Is that Ralphie and his trusty Red Rider Carbine-Action Air Rifle in the background? Happy Holidays!!
