Here's a few more images from the Botevgrad brass festival (or whatever it's called in English). And by the way I made a mistake in the last blog post, of course it's October and not September as I by mistake wrote. So on October 2nd, which was the second day of the event I joined the crowd again. No matter that I was a bit ill, what ever flu virus or something, grabbed my gear and took a one hour walk in to the center of the town.
Some of the cheer leader girls waiting that the show will go on. 

Still waiting. A wide angle shot with the Botevgrad museum in the background. 
 
Enough of light, but a bit of too much of contrast due to the a bit harsh evening light and the shadows of the buildings around. But you can always use it to your advantage.

Still waiting...

When everything is standing still, you can take your time and watch peoples facial expressions. Some expressions are more serious like in this one....



...and then there are those who are just cracking. Don't know what the girl saw in the crowd, but after that she really had hard times not to break out and laugh out loud. Poor she :))

 You can make an image of a musician this way, quite normal framing...

...Or try something else.


                                                            And then the show will go on...



A few more musicians...


 ...and a two cheerleader portraits. 

                                          Don't forget to make a few images of the audience...
   
Nor the relaxed musicians after the show.

And just one more image. You can always try to make some a bit more artzy images too. Here I chose a slow shutter speed and panned the camera, just to give the picture some extra. 

That's it. We'll see if there is something similar organized again next year. Heard today that the third day was the best, I just didn't have the chances to go there so I'll leave it here and try my luck on something else.
