      Hello Soheir!
      Thank you; Lowell is very pretty, especially the downtown. It is prettiest for the festival. The city has immigrant groups from many countries and they marched in the parade. It is amazing to see so many places represented.
      I hope all is well there and you are having a great day.
      Cheers =)

      Thank you…We almost missed the parade and I set up at the last moment. If I’d gotten there sooner, I would have kept moving with it. Cheers =)

         Did you use a tripod or monopod or just steady nerves 😉

         It was my steady nerves only on this one, Teri. 😉

   Excellent music. They are self supporting but get help lining up acts from the National Council on the Traditional Arts, which sponsors the National Folk Festival. I think I’ll be posting artist photos tomorrow. They had a great old style Delta blues guy who goes by the name Super Chikan who was great. Thanks
