Description
Fie…for shame! And at the mercy of the townsfolk.
Lasses gone awry, captured 4/27/14, at the beautiful Renaissance Faire, held at the beautiful Santa Fe Dam Recreation Area, in semi beautiful Irwindale, California.
It's showtime everyone. The real pillories of olde had holes that were small and barely accommodated the neck and wrists.
I hope these two vagrants, pretty as they are, learned their lesson.
Extremely ZOOM worthy.

A delightful capture, for the fun on their faces and the clear play of the whole thing. I notice there's either plastic or leather around the holes: In many pillories of old, that was just wood, and it could splinter and cause infections. (They didn't care, the more pain inflicted, the happier they were.) And as you point out, the holes were much less large. Here, because it's a public fair, they used protections---including sanding and finishing the wood around the holes, itself. I like the angle on both shots, and that you give a piece of their costumes below. A surprise, yet part of who they are. And I love the expressions on the faces---like a lot of your portraits in this series, they're smiling for you, but natural. You've gotten a lot of posed yet unposed smiles here---meaning, they're clearly smiling at you but not "performing" their smiles. They're natural, in other words. You must have the magic, because it's not easy to get that, especially so many of them in one event. Your smiling portraits have been a joy, and I can't get over that they keep on coming. How'd you do it? I've NEVER gotten smiles like this, so natural and so radiant, and over and over. You have the magic. (I'd die to see someone give you and the other photographers the finger, lol! Now that would be Renaissance-like! "Sod off, Mate! Stuff yer bloody camera up yer jerkin, you periwig-pated knave!") You got great expressions, one after the next. A real delight.
