    On 1st glance, I thought these were snow covered mountains.
    Great picture a real contrast.

  • Arlene Zapata

    I guess I never thought of that since the heat index was 115 degrees that day! Palm trees + mountians would be a nice combo thought. Thanx for commenting poppykitten.

  • jegustavsen

    I love the bright colors against the white tents. I wouldn’t of guessed it was a state fair, more like a california look, and it looks “cool” not reflecting the 115 degrees!

  • Arlene Zapata replied

    Hi Jeanne! It was the only sleek oasis in the whole fair grounds, every thing else was visually loud, garish + noisy. This is my favorite image!

  • jegustavsen

    jegustavsen

    Ha, I loved the way you described everything else.

  • Arlene Zapata replied

    You know…how State Fairs can be…
