Third Thursday

[Lorey]

The first time since 2019 a local town held its outdoor event,'Third Thursday.' They have it from April through October every year. Last year the Covid shut it down all year. It's the only local event I have an opportunity to get out amongst crowds to get some street shots, beside the Annual Maple Leaf Parade every year in Sept. One drawback of living in a small Midwestern town. I used my little pocket shooter for these.

Also, welcome to the forum David. I didn’t notice when I first replied to your post that it was your first. Looking forward to seeing some of your work.

Many strong images in this set!!
But shot 1 post 1 is gold. It's a fantastic slice of this little town. Your comp here is rock solid to my eye and the framing is just awesome!
Can I ask - where is this?

Thank you Marko for your kind comments. This is in the town of Joplin, Missouri, population around 50K. that's the town i work in but i live in a much, much small town called Diamond, population 900...or so. It's about a 25 minute drive from my house to where they have the Third Thursday events in downtown Joplin. As I mentioned it's the only opportunity I get to try and do some street photography. I always appreciate you viewing and commenting.
