Entertainers

Friday people day and todays photo was taken at the Celtic Festival recently.

These ladies were part of the entertainment on the day. The lady on the stilts had her work cut out for her because it had rained the day before and the ground was quite soggy in places. Her stilts kept getting stuck in the grass and she did very well to stay upright, perform and smile all at the same time.

Oh great shot Babs, Good on her for staying up on those stilts. I couldn't do it even without the rain!

[Paula W]

They look happy to have their photo taken - well the lady on the right does and the other lady looks as though she's really concentrating although I have no idea what she's doing?

[Beryl Lloyd]

A delightful shot of these two entertainers Babs The stilt-walker is managing so well and with a smile on her face , but I had a little titter at the Queen of hearts as she is concentrating so hard in catching her hoops ?, grimace in her face and legs all in a tangle !! Hi hi !!

[Barb Newcomb]

Great shot of them. I do admire those stilt walkers for their balance!!!

[Babs]

@paulaw @beryl Ha ha, I'm not really sure what the lady in red was trying to do either. I think she must be new at this game. Hope it isn't her day job.

[Leana Niemand]

They are so good. Love the capture.

[Valerie Chesney]

Great capture, Babs, I so like these events....

Looks as though it was a fun event but I don't envy her on those stilts in the wet!

[Loopy-Lou]

Fun!, great candid capture.

[Sylvia du Toit]

Thanks for sharing.

[Dianne]

A lovely capture of the action.

[Pat Knowles]

Such a balancing act to keep upright on stilts on soft grass! I have no idea how they walk at all! The lady in red looks very exotic!

[ShirleyB]

Lovely action shot of the ladies doing whatever it is. Like the costumes.

[Jen Hudson]

Great timing, caught them well. Brave I say!

[M0ments in time]

I would imagine it was quite difficult for her. Nice to have the other lady in the picture for perspective

[bkb in the city]

Nice shot. Festivals like this are always quite enjoyable

[dh (delena)]

They look like colourful characters.

[sally agnew]

I just cannot imagine walking on stilts, I have never mastered shoes with heels. Great shot Babs :)

[Taffy]

Your capture conveys the fun of the event.

[Yao RL]

What a tall lady, They are in there games!

[Peter Dulis]

Wonderful fav

[Margaret Pengelly]

Stilt walkers always fascinate me. I can imagine what a challenge wet soil must be.

[AmyJ]

Fun outfits!! Nice capture!

[Chris K]

so funny to think of the problem of one's stilts getting stuck in the ground. She looks like she's doing well and I love the other lady's concentration

[Rachel]

The lady on stilts looks more calm than the lady next to her!

[Babs]

The lady on the stilts did very well even though she got a bit stuck in the grass on occasion. She still managed to stay upright.
I never mastered shoes with heels either Sally.
I even managed to fall over wearing my flat sandals, hence the fractured wrist, ha ha. God knows what damage I could do if I wore stilts.
