The woman's dress is festive, perhaps she's a performer?

  It is festive all right. There is a 10 days long party -"feria"- every year. People wear folkloric dresses, specially women. She is also a part of the court of the "queen of the fair" and was in her way to attend and event.

Maybe you can get a shot of her from the front. The pwrty soinds like a great opportunity, not just for her, but interesting shots in general.

I don't know how many frames you shot, but these selected set makes a nice variation of improvisational shooting.

Thank you Akira. I came home with 110 images total. I selected 17 and finally decided to show here 3 that I find interesting or are related somehow.

  On a non photographic matter, I wonder about other people rates  ::)

  Gracias Armando. I have lower keeper rates than I had wen I first started to take pictures of live performances  :o But then again life is even less predictable  ;D

These are good - I really like the first - so much going on - the disconnect with the suburban, the colour... its shots like this that makes street shooting so much fun. I like it shot form the back.

I'm not sure about what the average  keeper rates are. I think 17 good ones out of 110 is pretty good but depends on where you are shooting I think. I love HKG because there are so many people that the shot will always be telling some story so keeper rate can be high.

Interested in seeing more
