FESTIVALS

Québec est une ville de festivals. Les Fêtes de la Nouvelle-France, Limoilou en Fête, Festival d'Été de Québec, Carnaval de Québec, etc. Quelques-unes de mes meilleures photos ont été prises lors de ces événements. Je vous en présente quatre aujourd'hui.

We have many Festivals in Quebec City: New France Festival, Limoilou en Fête, Quebec City Summer Festival, The Quebec Carnival, etc. Some of my best photographies have been taken during those events. Today, I want to show you four of them.

Yes, me too! And the one with the firetrucks is awesome too. Sorry I've been AWOL - I feel so listless ever since we moved, I haven't been doing any of my favourite things.

The blue lady is intriguing....that metallic blue really stands out against the white dress.

Réminiscence du festival d'été... Je crois me rappeler du musicien. Quand à la madame en bleu de Limoilou en fête, c'est pas mal joli commebody painting

Great shots, MP. It makes me want to see Quebec City during a festival. Kinda reminds me of the many festivals we've seen here in Hannover's Herrenhauser Gardens. I, too, really like the top one but all 4 have moods you could write a story about.

Andrea: Merci! That's true. There is a special moment here captured by the camera. I was lucky!

Marie: Don't bother. Moving keeps you occupied for many weeks. Then things will return to normal. BTW how are the new cats?

Detlef: Yes she WAS kind of strange... I hesitated before taking her pic. She looked like a princess and looked at me as if I were a peasant... YEP.

Mei: Oui, le musicien faisait partie d'un groupe. Je ne me rappelle pas de son nom, mais il avait appris à jouer des bongos en Afrique, je crois... Pis la dame bleue, elle a dû avoir bien de la misère à enlever tout son fatras... LOL

Ginnie: That's true. Imagining stories for all those pics would be fun... And for visiting, I told ya... anytime!
