Hey guys, we had Carnival here a couple weeks back. I took some photos while I was there and decided to share them. This is only a small portion of costumes which passed along the route I was at. There were so much more I wish I could have seen and shoot to share. But I hope you all like these. Click to link to see them all. It's a public link so no need for an FB account to enjoy

Roxanne, the pics are FABULOUS!!!!! I love that all ages, heights, weights and sexes participate. The feathers and towering headdresses are amazing. It appears that Carnival costumes show a beautiful Indian influence while Mardi Gras costumes can be almost anything.

Thank you so much for sharing the pictures!
