Fancy Beads

Mardi Gras is getting closer by the day. These are some fancy beads that my children will be throwing from the float. My mom decided that that they needed some special beads to throw. These are huge. We will be viewing the floats on Sunday. Here is another shot of the beads



I'm still playing with light - bounced some desk lamps off of two pieces of white poster board.

you've captured some lovely reflections here, and the beads seem to be cascading out of the screen. Gorgeous.

The play of light on Mardi Gras colors is perfect.

I really like how the beads are flowing towards the viewer here.

Recommended amount per rider for a 3 mile parade is 40 gross! That is a lot of beads!
