Shave Ice (H.A.N.W.E., HTT)

Shave Ice (H.A.N.W.E., HTT)
The "back yard" of the food zone of the local Fair.

Normally, you are looking at the front of the food truck/trailer/kiosk, checking the prices, decided on your purchase.

This is the back, where all of the preparation and setup goes on. Not nearly as gaudy and bright. At night, you probably don't see the back at all, just the bright lights.

(In case you are intrigued, "shave ice" is a Hawaiian invention. The "snocone" is more well known: a scoop of crushed ice with flavored sirup on top. The variant from the Islands has taken over the US. The smaller bottles you see on the tables contain the sirups.)

A fantastic visual treat. And the crazed beach zebra eating an ice cream cone is unforgettable.

Mo Betta than ice cream cone, it is "shave ice", a specialty of the Hawaiian Islands. Lots of color to be seen.

A fib=ne example of an interesting scene people miss because their attention is somewhere else (like their phone).

I should have said, but this is one of those "carnival by day" photos. Carnivals are, of course, much more interesting to the photographer at night with the spinning lights, food, crowds, etc. The Fair was open, but most of these vendors were not.
