Silvers Circus by

January 2010

I wanted to photograph this big top last year but it was already gone from this site where it sets up every year. I vowed to stop procrastinating and get out with the camera this year – and so I kept my word! I captured the fabulous yellow and white Silvers Circus tent where it is set up between the sea at Altona Bay and the Kooringal Golf course in Victoria, Australia. Just like a big kid I get so excited when I see that a circus is in town!

    wow u dont see much of these anymore love it Helen xx

  • Hi Bev, the familiar places that circus tents used to set up with their animals are now taken over by freeways, new housing estates and shopping centres! No more caged animals and tamers. This circus relies of human skills!

    Best wishes for the New Year! xox
