Meet a lovely mother with her lovely daughter. I saw them wandering about and was thrilled to see them interested in shooting. And the hearing protection was good. Well done, Mom!
Primarily portraits of people I know or with whom I cross paths. The primary reason to photograph them, is that I like them. They are interesting. They have nice smiles. They have lives with hopes and dreams. They are...Just People.

Another participant at the Ahlman's Gun Show.
I really like this photo. It captures the grief and profound sadness of a soldier who fought and survived the Civil War. GAR stands for the Grand Order of the Republic.

Participants of the Ahlman's Shooter Show.
I really do enjoy the costumes that various people wear to the show. They take a lot of time to get "just right". And they are entertaining!

Am Observant Participant
The young lady below was sitting by herself while her friends were observing some shooting event. She was quite stunning with the sun shining on her. So, I approached and asked to take her photo. I always ask.
Thank you so much! It was lovely chatting with you. But wear hearing protection! It is noisy at Alman's during the shooter show!

Honey of All Flavors
This gentleman was selling honey. Not just the normal, run of the mill, honey. ALL KINDS of honey! Even Root Beer flavored honey. That's got to be good!

More from Alman's Gun Show
I appear to have lost my list of names that match to photos. SIGH.
But I do recall this gentleman was trying to get me to sign up for something! OK, that isn't very helpful.
But here he is! I liked his smile and disposition,

Alman's Shooter Show: Musket Fire is FUN
OK, I know this may not be everyone's cup of tea. But, musket fire using black powder is pretty cool. I don't want to do it! But it sure was fun to watch.
If you are wondering what is burning out of the muzzle, it is the black powder that is still burning as it propels through the barrel.
And the smoke is pretty cool, too.
