    Today saw Liverpool's main day for celebrating the coming Year of the Ox with the traditional lion and dragon dances together with accompanying firecrackers.

      Thanks, guys. I almost filled two 8GB cards, but most had at least one big issue that I just wasn't happy with. I always find it a challenge to get decent shots when it's packed, it's difficult to position oneself due to limited space/freedom of movement, the subject matter is unpredictable, people/things get in your way.

      This, I got by running up ahead of everyone else and literally throwing myself in front of the parade!

      All good fun! :O)

      Cool use of wide angle. Great stuff.

      It's one of the two that climbed the poles to reach the money and lettuces. I also left a +1 stop exposure compensation on accidentally for a whole sequence of shots. *sigh*

      We didn't get to go this year so I'm appreciating everyone else's shots all the more. This is great and I love the dynamism of the camera angle, and that you put more work in than everyone else to make sure you got it.
