Helter Skelter by helenhall

Helter Skelter

Long day. This was taken from my earlier visit to the festival this morning. I took a walk along the river and into the town to visit the market and as I returned, things were beginning to liven up. Two boys were contemplating a ride on the helter skelter and I stopped to see if I could catch them on camera. I asked the parents if they minded me having the photo and so permission was granted.

I have made three subsequent visits today, culminating in the firework display, and inbetween we had a bbq in the garden with some neighbours. As I have volunteered for a spot of community spirited litter picking at 7 am before the crowds descend once again, I think it is time for me to rest my weary head. I am told, by my nearest and dearest, that it is ankle deep in litter throughout the park now, so it could be hard work in the morning! Good night all.
Fabulous action shot, looks like lots of fun.
You have had a very eventful day. Such a shame that with so many bins around (from your previous shot) that people just leave litter everywhere.
