The Brazilica Festival is the largest celebration of Brazilian culture in the United Kingdom that has been held annually in Liverpool, England since July 2008. It is produced by the Liverpool Carnival Company, an organisation that has operated as a registered charity since 2007. The festival began during Liverpool's reign as European Capital of Culture in 2008 when a Rio-style Carnival Parade swept through the streets of the city. In its current format, the festival consists of a week-long celebration of Brazilian culture including music, art, food, film and dance events that take place at indoor venues across the city which build up to an outdoor city centre carnival street party that takes place in Williamson Square and samba carnival parade.
The Liverpool Samba School was set up by husband and wife creative team Roger and Maeve Morris in 1995. The school performed at the Rio Carnival in 2000 and wanted to bring a touch of the Carnival's magic to streets in their own city. In 2007, the creative team established the Liverpool Carnival Company with an aim of delivering a Carnival event the following year.

This was taken at the Sampler field, looking away from the Franconia Ridge, which otherwise dominates the viewscape. The ridge right of center is the Presidential Range, with Mount Washington at the highest point.
The bank of fog soon crept towards the morning shooters, creating the magic in the other posted shots!

A Taiwanese aboriginal girl greets visitors in this lantern sculpture that stands three stories high. Her companion symbolizes the Year of the Dog.
The colours in the lantern shift slowly as viewers watch. Every half hour the music of a festive aboriginal chorus booms across the square as smoke rises, the colours swing across the entire range of hues, laser lights dart, and the entire sculpture rotates 360 degrees.

All of my Fairie Festival photos came out with awful color this year. They all had an extreme blue cast. Even when I supposedly fixed the color cast (to shift the blue), the color balance was just awful in a different way. It was still wildly unnatural. Every tone I tried to adjust changed others, or - when done for each color individually - just the change in that shade, when in context with all of the other shades, didn't look right. Frustrating.
I'm supposing that the bad color is a result of my camera's white balance being off. The full auto setting of my Canon 400D would automatically adjust the white balance for the bright sunlight/clear blue sky and high brightness/shadow contrast. But the full auto setting only has the sharpness/resolution set at a little above 50% and that cannot be changed in full auto - it's unchangeable. I want my detail to be as high as possible, so I use the "P" setting. I'm still learning about my XTi, though from what I can gather so far, you can't put the white balance on auto balance when using the "P" setting. Frustrating.
Anyway, using Photoshop Elements 5, I've tried a number of ways to make the color corrections, including adjusting based on "skin tones" (which gets the closest of any methods so far), auto color correction (doesn't help much), auto anything, and lots of manual manipulations available in various menu items - including adjusting levels by histogram, especially blue/yellow. Nothing works across the board. It's gonna take a looooong time to fix these. And on a few, the color is unfixable. I may be able to salvage them by making them B&W or a creative color combination not intended to look natural. It's a salvage operation. Frustrating.
