day 202 - robotic beasts or men on stilts?

both! these beasts were one of the highlight acts at the buskerfest this weekend in toronto. technology has brought us very far really, in that these "robots" manned by stiltwalkers inside and at the same time the heads are controlled electronically, along with the movements of the eyes, the beaks, the way they turned, etc. playful little chaps, these three.

day 201 - reflectors

we were at the buskerfest toronto tonight with the grandkids. we were waiting for the "fire performers" to start their performance. i took a picture of this pretty young lady, one of the performers. it was dusk so i used my camera's flash, but this was the resulting picture - everything was dark and only the reflective decoration of the lady's outfit showed. if you look closely, you will still see the image of the lady and the people in the background. still, i thought this was a really neat photograph.
