Twenty-Four

A scattering of faces of the performers and dancers at last weekend's Straw Bear Festival in Whittlesey. A wide variety of facial painting, facial hair and facial expressions:
      

and a couple more videos of the dancing:




Take care.

    Would you have anything calming to say to an anxious foreigner that has seen this kind of festivals only in British murder mysteries where someone is always killed in the dark forest in a neo-pagan ritual? ;)

    Great dancing and lots of fun. The face portraits are fantastic, John. I enjoy seeing all the characters who live out there, they sure do enjoy themselves and spread the good times around.
