It’s Fall Fair Time, the Best Time

I love them so much you don’t even know.

The scrappiness, how it appears overnight and transforms a field into a blinking nighttime wonderland. The people watching.

That’s why in my ‘Canadian Explorer’ days back in 2007, “Exploring a Fair” was my first ever exploration.

This video held up pretty good over time eh. It’s also how I taught myself Final Cut… there’s probably 50 hours of editing in there.

Shame its views are so low eh.

Then 2 years later I filmed, “Exploring the CNE”

Went to my first fair this past Labour Day weekend, and have 2 more lined up in September, see you there!

I even like how they’re tough to photograph.

 

 

Went to my 1st “Tractor Pull”

Turns out it’s a competition using a modified pickup truck.

They pull an obscene amount of weight, which causes the added stack to spew a massive amount of smoke.

The truck pulls the trailer about 280 feet, then the crowd claps while getting washed with exhaust.

It was amazing and I’m going again.
