Default Steet Performers

These guys were at our 4th of July Street Party. I snapped a quick shot. C&C welcomed and encouraged.

Thanks for the comments. I will check it on my moniter at work. I could be dark because of the moniter I am using at home.

Part of me wants to crop out the building and space behind the van, part doesn't because it puts them in the scene. Dark on my monitor, too, Jamie, not much...should be an easy fix. They look like they are enjoying themselves, did they sound good?

Yep it is dark here to. I'll fix it in a bit when I get a chance. They sounded ok.

Love it, Jamie!

Hated that I had to miss seeing you last weekend. That was the most anticipated part of my trip.
