Playing to a Tough Crowd

A trip to the county fair provides a good opportunity to do street photography in a fun setting. In this scene I loved how the old woman had a scowl on her face and was a lot more interested in her phone than the performance. I'm guessing that the guys in the band must have been thinking that this is a pretty tough crowd. This image is part of a series I'm doing on "A Trip to the County Fair".

Not many listeners and one who appears unhappy. An excellent photo.

Great candid and such a pity for the musicians ! So many people prefer now the virtual life of their phone than the real life performances... V.

The small "crowd" does appear to be unimpressed, and the grumpy looking woman confirms it.
