Thanks !
I used the 70-200 f2.8L and ISO settings of 800 - 1600.

Very nice street event...:D

Very, very nice PICS, great lighting....It appears to be more formal than a street festival, I would expect here in the states, ie: Houston's Westheimer Festival, or NYC's Ethnic Fair's....

I guess Europe and Israel have done these street/square festivals in this fashion for centuries...very nice....:cool:

Thanks John,

This festival takes place every year with both Israeli and foreign shows - it is really very nice event. I started to photograph it in 2004 - there are three galleries so far, you can see them all here (http://www.pbase.com/olegis/events01).

Take care,
