parade photography

Not Disney photos but I wanted to share my first real full CF card's worth of photos from my new Canon Rebel XT. The kit lens isn't so bad if you are right up on the action, though I really wish I had a nice long lens.

i wish we could share... everything i take has to be a mile away( ok it's getting irritating having only a 100-300mm film lens, i can only back up so far ) till i get my sigma back then decide what else i want... i mean need

just wondering did you use a flash for this?

No flash. Where I was standing the players came into the sunlight as they passed between trees. It was right before magic hour so the colors came out really warm. The shot above could have really benefited from a flash but I like the sun shining through Glen Wesley's red hair (and of course the boyish grin on his face).
