Lilac Festival 2012 - flowers

Another Lilac Festival, and the flowers were actually blooming. (Usually that happens a week later.)

This year there were buskers, dance schools, martial arts, non-prof vendors, bling vendors, craft vendors, musician (although fewer stages set up) and the new food trucks. They say there were fewer crowds this year, because of the cool weather, but I still felt like a cow trapped in a slow moving herd when I walked on the road.

I took more candid people photos and discovered the Auto-Focus for lens #2 (zoom) on the new Pentax Q was too slow for the taskThe Q was also slow when processing. Don't know if it was a battery thing, or the way the camera is. Will have to explore more. Still, I was glad I took the K-5, as well.
