Wilson County Fair 8-19-10

FINALLY! After two days of rain-outs, I finally made it to the Wilson County Fair. This was my first visit and my sole purpose was to improve on my photography.

I've never really shot anything that is constantly moving like carnival rides, and there were times I thought I'd scream because a shot I thought was nice ended up fuzzy. I was able to satisfy with 133 pictures of the over 400 that I took.  I also took some video of the rides and had a pretty good time.

I managed to eat a foot-long hot dog, a coke, a funnel-cake, and a Cherry Slush throughout the night.  I thought it might be a little depressing going to the fair by myself, but I found people to talk to...took pictures for people (with their camera) and just strolled.

I really enjoyed seeing and hearing the kids squeals on these rides, and at the games. Makes me wish I had one.

The fair runs through this Sunday 8/22 and you should go if you have the time. I may go to the Tennessee State Fair next month in Nashville, but this was a bigger, better and much safer experience.
