This was taken the Texas Renaissance Faire last fall. I saw this man performing with a piper. So, given my indecent obsession with bagpipes, out came my camera. After noticing a wickedly gorgeous woman (that would be me... ahem) with camera in hand, the man proceeded to throw down his drum and put on a rather bawdy show for me. Of course, my egging him on with the standard "what's under yer kilt, big boy?" didn't calm the situation any. Now you may give me grief on this shot because of the people in the background, but their reaction to his performance is part of the humor of this photo. I left the DOF to include them, so there! I only got off (ahem) one shot of this decisive moment -- unfortunately I fogged up my lens. This charismatic cad is likely part of the McNitt clan....
Braw, braw lads on Yarrow-braes, They rove amang the blooming heather; But Yarrow braes, nor Ettrick shaws Can match the lads o' Scarborough Faire...
It's Cousin Angus, actually. Has a fondness for strong whiskey and bonnie bawdy lasses. Gets my vote for most wickedly hilarious photo description -- ever! Believe me, one shot was enough.
LOL Carol. I'm trying to recall the name of the Scottish show at the Scarborough Renaissance Faire. Ah yes...The Tartan Terrors...the guys danced with lots of 'swirling' if ya get my drift. ;)
