Over the years I’ve shot the Decatur Christmas parade several times, each year fascinated by all the lights I tend to play quite a bit with the slow sync.

I wanna be a cowgirl!

Oddly enough the first photo I ever had published in messenger was a tad abstract!

So it kinda tends to be a anniversary challange to me! This year marks the seventh. Shooting this long in one place has its blessings and drawbacks, blessings = knowing the lay of the land, whats fixin to take place.  Drawbacks =jaded vision, redundant vision. All in all it’s still exciting to me, I geuss it’s the big kid in me and all the whirling lights.
