Birmingham Through My Lens: I Love a Parade!

I Love a Parade!

Yesterday I was lucky enough to be a photographer for the Mountain Brook Mystics Halloween Parade. It was great fun seeing the creative homemade neighborhood floats packed to the gills with very cute costumed kiddos, plus local businesses and of course cheerleaders, dancers, firemen and much more. I couldn't pick just one so you get a collage today!

PS I caught a Milky Way thrown from a float. Life is good!

SRQ said...: Looks like fun. The little pirate is cute! Nice to hear they still allow candy to be tossed from floats. I thought most cities banned that years ago.; November 1, 2011 at 8:07 AM

Lowell said...: A Milky Way? It's a good thing it was not a Snickers 'cause I would've snatched it out of your hands. If I was in Birmingham, that is!

I like your parade and your beautiful collage ... what a bunch of cuties. Even the balloons are cute.; November 1, 2011 at 3:25 PM
