Default Street Performer

Also shot at the Winterlude festival here in Ottawa.



Now if i told you that this guy was going to put his entire body weight on his right arm, keep holding his right foot with the other arm, and then use his left foot to kick the toy baby seal that is hanging at just under 6 feet..... what would you say?

Yea, i reacted the same way.... "uh huh... suuure he is" You can even see an overly confident look on his face. :P
Well i couldn't believe that he actually did it.. Not only did he do it, but he did it very well. It was split second fast, and after he kicked it, his leg came back down and he stood up gracefully, without losing balance, keeping perfect form.



I really enjoyed shooting these guys. It was alot of fun and they drew a pretty big crowd rather quickly, they definately knew how to work the crowd.

p.s. I say "them, and they" The chubbier fellow in the brown fur coat does these crazy jumps and kicks aswell.

Enjoy, and thanks for looking.
