Even the wee ones got in the act!

There were lots of other things to do...

The sheepdog demonstration was amazing...

and who can pass up a chance to shoot the English knight?

Musicians and dancers performed on stage all day long

The pipe bands competed and then finished off the day playing sets for the crowd

It was great to see so many young people involved in the bands!

It was a great day to be a Scot in Spokane!

Thanks for a super group of photos. The picture of throwing the weight over the bar - with such a wide-angle lens it seems you were close enough to be in the danger zone.

Now there's a man that knows his camera optics! Yep - there were only a few competitors I was willing to photgraph from this position - I was about 3 feet in front of the athlete.

Thanks for these. Looks like a great time.
Don't suppose you'll be going to the Boise highland games at the end of the month? Diane and her SCD/Highland dance group will be performing.

Dang Arlen - I wish I could be there I'd love to take some more highland game photos this summer but I'm afraid I'm busy.
