Mono Monday some shots of the Veterans day Parade
Good Morning and may you have a good week ahead, as I tend to do I am sharing a few mono shots today, taken on my last time I was out taking photos when I went to catch the Veterans day parade here in New Bedford MA
I took over 200 Photos that day and ended up editing about 175 of them , the color ones I shared on social media, but I saved these ones which I feel worked well in mono to share here
this was the vehicle the grand marshall of the parade was in, he is is Rick Martin, who joined the Air Force in 1971 as a field maintenance airman. He eventually joined the Navy and obtained the rank of Captain in the Naval Reserves

Back when we lived in Ct I used to ge tout and catch most of the parades, St Patricks Verterans, etc etc, but i havent caught any of the parades here, for a mix of reasons my wife had some health issues and I didnt like going out during the day, and secondly I guess laziness, in Milford Ct where we lived it was an easy walk to geto most of the parades here it is a longer walk ad sometimes finding parking not to far fromthe parade routes can be a challenge, but now since i caught this one next year maybe I will do better catching some of the others
Now this next guy I dont know who he was but he was walking proudly in the parade
