Happy 100th Attleboro


Photo-A-Day #3438

Today the city of Attleboro celebrated its 100th Anniversary with a large citywide party. There was a huge parade and the lines in the street were painted red, white and blue. For a few weeks a large birthday cake was on the corner near Capron Park. I didn’t see the parade because I was sleeping for the day (work and all) but I did wake up around 3 and walked over to the park to check things out. There were food trucks, vendors and music. I would have liked to have gone to the celebration and seen the entertainment and fireworks. But at the same time it was so hot that I’m okay with not seeing more than I did when I walked over to the park. I think I experienced just enough.

Attleboro Christmas Parade

Today was the annual Christmas Parade in Attleboro. It runs from the Riverwalk to Capron Park. I woke up right around when it was starting. I didn’t intend to go to the parade but I when I didn’t fall back asleep I got up and went down the street to watch. It was also another excuse to use my new Samsung NX300. I switched tot he 18-200mm lens and was very impressed with the range on the lens. This ladder truck was coming down the street with the back end veered to one side and I like how it looked. The parade was pretty qucik so I was able to go down and shoot it and get back to sleep before work.
