Dragonboat Festival 2008

Last September, I attended the Dragonboat Festival in Pittsburgh- one of the few interesting cultural events in the city. It had it all- great food, great music, and awesome subjects for photography.
Kids are probably the best subjects to shoot- even when they have no idea you are there, they look absolutely adorable. This was a young girl and her father- lots of these cute couples at the festival.

There were also performances, all unique in their own way. To the right is an image of a group of dancers- flawless!

At the festival, there were a lot of vendors selling items such as Geisha dolls, parasols, clothing, etc. All of the merchandise was gorgeous and authentic, as was the food, which I ate way too much of.

Hopefully I will be able to make it to the festival next year to get some more shots, and some more General Tso :)
