porter county fair

i made my first visit to the porter county fair this year. i hadn't really planned to photograph the trip, but once i got there i decided upon a little challenge. i was going to photograph the fair, without looking at what i was photographing. yup. i shot randomly, without looking at the back of the camera for help lining up shots.


some of the photos got people i knew in them.


others did not.


and a few i did take with purpose, looking to be sure i got the shot i wanted: fried pepsi & a fabulous waffle cone. :) we were convinced the fried pepsi was just poor type placement on the sign. you know, that they sold deep fried goodies AND served pepsi. we were wrong. apparently they make a pepsi-laced dough & fry it up in balls. four pepsi balls per order, to be exact.



and then i had to take this one. two things to point out here. A - does the kid seriously not know he's mooning the entire fair? and 2 - check out the gal in front of me who's also taking a photo of the kid who's mooning the entire fair. :)


we were at the fair to see the switchfoot concert. we had really good seats, and it was a great show.


the four of us, looking cute. :)
