Great light and motion overall and very nice look of wonder on the little girls face.

Our Christmas parade is during the day. Our Intern did a good job with it, but it looks like "Christmas" more with the dazzle of lights.

Thanks Ken. I greatly appreciate a comment on this set of images.
I always debate with myself about posting Xmas parade photos. It's important to the community, so I post them.
They're challenging to shoot, but I don't want a parade photo next to my obit.
I'm glad to know other PJs can appreciate the challenge.
