Mermaid Parade

I remember my mother and father taking me to the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Sitting on top of my dad's shoulders and looking at the giant floats, the beautiful colors, the great music, and here we are a couple of years later spending the day at Coney Island at the Mermaid Parade. My new policy is one camera, one lens, two batteries, two cards. This time, I chose to test a new lens, a  135 f/2. Last year's parade, I used a 10-22mm. Obviously, a huge change! But, changing it up is a good thing. What I'm about to say is not a scientific fact. It appeared to me for every person in the parade, there were 3 photographers. I could be off, but I'm not that far off.
