I went back to the Renaissance Festival yesterday and took a bunch more photographs...so on with the joust!

This gown looked to be very much for Yule or Christmas!

I had a crazy weekend, and I think I'm still recovering from it. But I took a whole slew of photos that I can hopefully make use of in future graphic work. I am currently on the second cover design for UK author Richard Denning...need to update Avalon Graphics with my current working schedule.
I hope all of you had a good weekend and are getting started on a decent week! I'll update again soon with more personal ramblings. No time for graphics, but I'm attempting to get in a few wallpapers. And I miss writing! *sighs* But generating an income comes first eh?
