This is the only real float in the parade. The Western Day Parade lasted over 1 1/2 hours. The parade consised of alot of trucks, cars, motorcycles, and horses. Alot of candy was thrown and kids would run in the street to pick it up. Kids left with bags of candy they picked up.
The Anyaman Jati - Weaving Personas float from the Chingay 2014 was parade around Eu Tong Sen Street and New Bridge Road during Yuan Xiao Jie at Chinatown for the Chinese New Year Festival celebrations.
Everybody loves a parade, particularly one with colorful floats and music being played by a live band. I'm not sure why this short parade was being held in the French Quarter of New Orleans. But I still enjoyed it.

I think I incorporated all three groups today, haven't done that in awhile. Ahhh how liberating days off are! Also working on my photoshop skillz. I don't think I pulled this off as well as cloning, but I am working on it.
Does anyone know how I could add drop shadows back into it?
TOTW: My Secret life - I wish I had some kind of super power. Being able to float or fly would probably be one of the coolest super power abilities ever. If I could float I know I would do it every day :)

TRP: DANGER!!! You never know what can happen when you're floating!
Beer floating is a simple sport. Several thousand young people get together to float downriver towards Helsinki in craft ranging from unseaworthy to near suicidal, provisioned with plenty of fluids. The weather gods favoured it this year.
Taken in June 2011, at the Duck Brand, Duct Tape Festival in Avon Lake, OH. All of the floats for the parade were made entirely of duct tape...this one was my personal favorite. I've been wanting to print this since it was first developed...took me a while, but I finally got around to it. I believe that this was the first roll of film that I self-developed.
Camera: Holga 120N, developed in Diafine. I don't recall the film used.
Print: Adorama Variable Contrast, Resin Coated paper, enlarged at f/11, 10.5 seconds, developed in Kodak Dektol, stock, for one minute.
Making prints, is really helping to increase my understanding of not only starting with a properly exposed negative, but also the importance of setting up or composing the shot with printing (or whatever the end product) in mind. It's not that I don't already know that on some level, but printing makes it all a little more concrete for me. My case in point, is a shot that I took a long time ago, and has been on my list to make a print of. Unlike this image, I didn't want to use a sloppy border, even though the image had a slight whimsical nature to it. I realized immediately, when I put the negative in the enlarger that there was too much sky in the image, and ultimately the sky would just bleed into the photo paper border. Even if I cut the border off, I'd get basically the same result. I didn't really understand, back then when I shot the photograph, what I understand now. So...at some point, maybe I'll go back and see if I can get a similar shot, keeping in mind the end result.
I went ahead and printed it anyway; I wanted to try a new photo paper. But, the result was just as I had imagined. It's all good though...from where I sit...the journey's the best part.
On our journey through what we call "life", we face obstacles...
Some have all their attention on the obstacle and how to surpass it no matter how small or big it is, some just give up once they see it coming....
The best are the ones who have all their attention on where they are actually heading to, the main aim, the goal.... I want to collect my prize, I Shall Float...

Root Beer Float Cupcake
This week was my TFSG Michelle's birthday. Birthdays mean a meeting of the Supper Models... This time we decided to have a desert monsters theme alongside the appetizer meal. this must all sound like such gibberish to everyone, so I'll just describe the picture: Michelle's birthday root beer float cupcakes. Root beer cupcake with root beer icing and vanilla bean "icecream" icing.

The cab interior of a Smiths Electric milk float that had been used by a farm at Stanley Common in Derbyshire for local milk deliveries. By the time this picture was taken in 2017, it had fallen into disuse and would be sold on.
As seen on other of my images, floats are ever present as decorations everywhere...
Taken in North Truro beach where we had rented a cottage.
