American's Hometown Thanksgiving Parade






Our annual Thanksgiving Parade in Plymouth is a very well attended event, the streets are lined on both sides for miles with people of all ages out enjoying a day in the sun. Joe, Christy and I had a great time photographing it and watching all the activity, and there was a lot of activity! I loved all the interesting people and did my best to capture the feel of the day, Saturday, November 23rd. 
Passing the time blowing bubbles, nice to not see a smart phone...


Straight out of a Dickens novel.

This little girl asked a stranger if she could pet his dog, and just loved this dog at first sight.

Like father like son. 

 Very comfortable in these old fashioned clothes.
  
Lots of marching bands.

 An agreeable model.

Lost in thought.

Not sure I'm liking it here...

Street Photography Workshop with Essdras

Essdras M. Suarez and I led a street photography workshop in Boston yesterday, and what a great day to be out and about in Boston!! Spirits were high, the Red Sox parade took place and thousands of people came to enjoy the celebration.
We had scheduled our workshop months ago, and having all the fans in town was an extra bonus for us, along with the mild, perfect weather. A great time was had by all, and here are a few photos I took during our 8 hours of walking around Boston. The workshop was through my website Photography Events by Amy.

 The Boston Police were ready and looking good.

An agreeable and fun group of photographers attended the workshop, great spirit and energy made for a wonderful day.


 Ahh, the fans...

 In Chinatown time stands still, the old way is honored.
