Ashland Halloween Parade Begins!

Steve and I went to the Ashland Halloween Parade yesterday and had a wonderful time taking pictures! Today's second and final group of pictures begins with the start of the Ashland Halloween Parade! I wish that you could have heard the amazing drums and percussion music being played, the rhythm was fantastic and reverberated right through my body! Impossible to resist dancing right along with them!

I have to mention: unfortunately the lighting wasn't the best and I needed to shoot in ISO 400...which means my images have a lot of grain. A drawback to this camera is terrible noise on 400 or higher ISO. I did get lots of fun pictures though, and I hope you enjoy them!

There are --> 36 <-- in this group, with 42 added yesterday. These aren't pictures to jump up and down about, but the costumes are worth checking out! ENJOY!! (Yes, I know it's too many images to view for most people, but I wanted to get this group finished and up onto Flickr!)
