Hats at an Art Festival- Redux

Repost From 2012


21 Hats and a Bicycle

The Lovely Sharon and I like to go to the various town art festivals in the Coachella Valley. Towns from Palm Springs to Indio each hold an annual arts festival.  Our favorite one is the Indian Wells Art Festival that is held in March or April each year.  There are paintings,sculptures, jewelry, photographs and other arts and crafts.  I usually take my camera to this outdoor arts festival.  In 2011 I realized that the patrons were almost as interesting as the art.  Especially their hats.  Hats of all kinds and colors.  I  took off my lense cap and started shooting photos of hat after hat.
