    G'day mate

    Looks like many Aussie town scenes ... parking signs and all
    The performers could be anyone -also- enjoying an afternoon's jam session - and I am left pondering the team member in drag - how hot would s/he get during the day?

      Looks cool. Did it sound cool? I could never get into jazz but I know some pretty good jazz musos. Great photo and it looks like they close off the street for the big event.

        Its not just jazz more like jam. A bit of everything. There are about 5 tents like this with small groups playing. And yes, the street is blocked off for the event. Figrin D'Dan is a 1:6 scale figure. I did something really different this time. I have a rod about 3 feet long. On one end is a gun like grip. On the other end is a pair of pincers. So my son gripped the figure and held it out. Meanwhile I move back and forth until its the right size and in the right spot and I take the shot. Immediately my son whips the figure out of the shot and I take another shot. Then in layers I just erase the aluminum rod and pincers. Easy peasy.

          Well done mate. I'm liking your technique and thought process to get these fabulous results. Figrin D'Dan cold pop up anywhere I guess. You inspired me.

              Just a bit of fun mate, to keep the grey matter ticking over.
