summer fair
Some more pics today from our time spent at the PNE (Pacific National Exhibition) on the weekend. We tried to take some video and pics while we were on the rides, but they are a tad unflattering... lots of me screaming and with my eyes closed... so you won't be seeing those. Some of our highlights... riding the corkscrew coaster (I realize I forgot to take a pic of it), eating mini doughnuts, seeing the Superdogs show, bumping in the bumper cars, getting queasy on the tilt-o-whirl, seeing the farm animals (yesterday's post) and even winning a few small prizes playing carnival games.

looks like fun!! What fantastic photos you take!!
Awesome color shots! The last fair I went to, I won a prize because the guy didn't guess my age correctly. He had to be within two years but he guessed 19. Hehe. Take that, carnival guy! Outsmarted by a 22-year-old. (I can't even imagine what age he would have guessed if my boyfriend - 28 - hadn't been there. Maybe 15.)
I think you've captured the great youthful and innocent spirit that going to the fair brings out in all of us :)
love these photos. so bright and FUN!! carnivals are the best. :)
Great photos! Looks like a ton of fun:)
Fairs are such fun. Makes even an old gal like me feel like a kid again.
So envious, missy! These shots are amazing. xo
Great pictures! I love the one of the swings. : )

Great job at capturing all the bold colors.
Thanks for sharing.
What a great time! Looks like so much fun. Wish we had something like that around here.
wow, you are an amazing photographer
I love fairs and I love all the beautiful pictures that you've captured! Did you get to eat some funnel cake? That is my favorite part of going to a fair!
Oh man, this looks like fun! I'm a roller coaster girl myself. I can't, unfortunately, do the rides that spin a bunch--I found this out in 8th grade when I passed out on one! That Superdogs show sounds awesome! Mmmm, mini donuts...any donut really lol :)
Looks like a blast!
Brings back many fun memories for me!
Great pictures! I love the swings...that was always (and still is) my favorite ride.
Love It....I so want to go the PNE..I adore Fairs...especially the PNE...we sometimes will head down to the Lyden Fall Fair...much smaller.
I got your lovely bird cards in the mail today...I adore them...so much I don't want to give them away! May have to buy some more soon. I will put them on my blog one day soon and link back to your blog and shop! Thanks again!
these pics are awesome, brings me back to being a kid!
Great photos! They make me want to go off to a carnival!
Love your pictures and your picture combination!
I wanna go! That looks like a blast. Brings me back to when I used to go to the fair with Mum and Dad when I was little. Happy memories!
Those pics are incredible! and i can't believe how blue the sky is. I am looking out on a typical Irish late summer day here - grey rain clouds :)
looks amazing! I don't blame you about the eyes shut and screaming, I'm not a huge fan myself!
Very impressive photos here! They really convey the sense of fun that you obviously had!
I never get tired of seeing carnival shoots. Especially ones that were well taken as yours!
sounds like fun : )
What beautiful colorful photos. Nice job.
You KNOW I love these fair shots! Wonderful. Looks like you had a great day for it too! :)
These photographs are AMAZING. You should offer them for sale on etsy :) I would totally buy the first one!
The state fair is starting soon here in Albuquerque, I cant wait to get some cotton candy !
You have to do the fair every summer, don't you? Especially if you have kids...they're the perfect excuse :) I'm sure a great time was had by all!!!
