County Fair by Daylight
The canned goods are my favorite exhibit.
A display of sweet embroidered linens. The sewing display in general was disappointing--mostly tie-dyed tees.
Complementary colors always work. Salsas and pepper sauces taken very seriously here. I saw men in business suits making cell phone calls to report on the judging of the hot canned items.
Style to spare.
A sweet-faced goat.
Empty is more interesting than full.
Concessions.
Richness.
Soft-faced rabbits.
Winners.
Daisy tries cotton candy.
Prizes.
My husband.

Absolutely beautiful photographs, Anna! What a sweet, sunny day. :0) And those bunnies are too adorable!
I was just fine and dandy not missing our fair until you showed all these pictures! What fun!
Canning seems to be pretty serious at our fair too, though I haven't seen and dressed up, cell toting business men. Of the 12 canned items I entered, 9 placed!
I love those photographs!~!~!~!
You're a fabulous photographer!!
These pictures are fantastic...as always...but wow, these capture the spirit of a county fair incredibly well!
I've been gone the past week on vacation and have missed checking your blog. It's fun to catch up! :)
love your photos .. i grew up in rural Illinois and they really took me back!
Anna,
Every now and then, something you post resonates with me. I repeat it to myself often in hopes of overcoming obstacles.
Since I'm a natural clutterbug, I have to remind myself that "elegance is restraint," something I picked up from your blog.
Now I've got another one: Empty is more interesting than full.
Thank you,
Jora
