4-H Fair
Saturday we headed to a traditional Carroll County event - the Carroll County 4-H & FFA Fair.
This is the 112Th year of the fair. I've seen the last 35.
I have judged the photo contest a few times in the past. I would also shoot for two special sections at the newspaper I worked for.
This year I was able to enjoy the fair with the family.
There's a lot to be said for seeing the fair through the eyes of children. We walk by and say yes, that's a goat, but they see more. They show wonder and happiness in their faces.
Don't forget to take a camera to capture their delight and shoot images of the animals.
You get a chance to photograph animals up close. There are interesting images to capture. Like two pigs sleeping together, goats like to look around above their pens also close-up of animals.
You can also use light in some of the exhibits like in poultry and photography.
The fair makes for a nice family outing and there is good food so you could have lunch or supper. With the heat, they have you covered from ice tea to ice cream.
