I hit two festivals today, the Japan Fest and the Roots and Heritage festival. I just finished the Japan Fest, and will post the Roots and Heritage Fest tomorrow. There should be some good portraits in them.

I thought the images looked a little flat. But I darkened my monitor a bit and now they really pop. Nice.

As I get familiar with the zoom, I'm hoping for more consistent results.
