    My favourite "Photo of another Act"

    I thought I'd start another "gallery thread" of your favourite photo of some-one else working.
    I took this last Sat at Southbank, it's "The English Gentlemen" doing one of the best shows I've seen for years. The clock tower unmistakably marks time and place for those who know the pitch. The girls in the front rows seemed especially impressed.

    So here's the challenge folks, look through your photos and show us some of your best.

    I thought we could stick with the underwear theme.

    This is the Tony Clifton Circus ( from Rome ) in Spain in 1995.

      Or maybe I should have kept to the acrobat theme.

      These are the Leaping Loonies ( from Australia ) at the same Spanish festival in 1995.

                  21st Century Bagpipe?

                  Found this guy out busking yesterday in Melbourne, unfortunately he wouldn't tell me his name.
                  The metal foil bag under his arm is the liner from a 20 litre bulk wine container. It's inflated by the plastic foot pump bottom left and a tube runs from the bag to a penny whistle.

                      Not great but not that bad.
                      The almost continuous, the arm has some control, wind from the bag had little nuance and his fingering wasn't great. A set of drone flutes making a chord/s may have helped fill it out.

                      I hope it's a work in progress.

                        I took this snap yesterday at Southbank.
                        It's Julz doing new show after breaking his wrists in his slack rope show. It's short, no acrobatics but his clown is benefitting.

                        I like the snap most because I only had one chance to catch the model car jumping and I think I'm finally working out how my new camera really works.

                        It's not a video grab, it's a 16m tiff
