It's been a while since my last FotoWalk. An opportunity to go out on my third escapade (check out
#1 and
#2) arose this past weekend during this year's Labor Day Parade in the little town I live in called Marina. Rather than attending the parade and taking pictures from the side (which, I did do eventually), I decided to go to the start line two hours prior to the parade for the setup. The idea to capture moments during the preparation of an event came from one of my first mentors, Dana Barsuhn. He is an accomplished street photographer based in Los Angeles and someone I look up to artistically and personally (check out his work
here).
I tried something new during this edition of FotoWalk: I took out my GoPro camera to capture some video footage as well. I got a lot of attention with a little HD video camera attached to my head, including the Mayor of Marina, Bruce Delgado. I'm in the process of editing a video, which Bruce said he'll put on the City of Marina website. I'll post that here once I finish. In the meantime, enjoy some of the shots I captured during this warm, festive day!
