Aqua Fest 2011

I was in Lake Stevens this past weekend, attending and photographing Aqua Fest.  This was my first time there and I have to say that Lake Stevens really knows how to put on a party.  There was literally something going on at all times.  Up first for me was the tennis and softball tournaments.   It was blazingly hot, but I have to hand it to the participants - they didn't let it get to them.  (Unlike me, I swear my shoes were filled with hot lava.)  What a bunch of enthusiastic and fun loving people. 

For someone who's never shot sports photography before, I'm fairly happy with the results.  Best thing?  Got to use my new long lens!

Among the other events: a classic car show, $50 boat races, pennies-in-the-hay, foot races, a duck dash, a boat parade, and a grand parade.  All-in-all, it was a fun weekend.
