Segue to Analogue April

...attack of the segways.

Today I took my son to "our nation's capital", Canberra. He has volunteered to assist at the National Folk Festival over Easter, so while he was undertaking training, I was taking photos.

Had just about gotten through a roll and half of film, and was lying down on ground to take a shot up this walkway of flag on Parliament House when I got photobombed by a tourist group on segways. Segued from analogue to digital.

On our way to Canberra we were listening to Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0RQnGhxZzg

Analogue April could be more than a 40 day dream!
awesome pic!! Love the bombers!

You could almost buy a new Canon L Series lens for the cost of all the film and processing during a month. You were actually Segway bombed as I was preciously. http://365project.org/morrisroos/365/2011-09-18

Great story!! Check out the dude with the green helmet. I think he's pointing at you and laughing... the nerve... but of all things to photobomb you, I'm guessing segways are the funniest!
