My friends and I went to the Ohio State Fair this weekend. I hadn't been since middle school? High school? I can't remember. I've stayed away because generally I don't like heat and crowds, but I had a great time and plan on going back next year. We lucked out with relatively cooler weather and I fell in love with the fair. We didn't see the butter cow, but we did sit in on Holstein competition, only to discover at the blue ribbon ceremony that it was all about the utters. Which explained a lot.
My favorite place was the poultry barn. I wandered the the aisles of fancy chickens, marveling at their colors and sizes, wishing I could take one home. They had a ton of heritage breeds as well. Sigh.
I took my polaroid spectra and my holga. Below are my favorite polaroid shots. The fair was made for polaroids. See all my photos here.
Haha, of course you loved the chickens! <3
Those Polaroids are awesome. There's something soft and old-timey about the colors that's perfect for the fair.
