Lyons Fiddle Festival 2008

The 25th anniversary event, held Sunday, 21 September 2008.

An annual down home sort of event, very well done with an assortment of bands from nearby and far combined with a fiddling contest for all age groups. Throw in some good and reasonably priced food and clusters of musicians pluckin' and sawin' all throughout a pleasant tree shaded park, the day can't be beat.

This particular event also had a number of restored vintage tractors on display.

In keeping with the vintage of the tractors and much of the music, these shots were taken on black and white film with Ye Olde Photographer's recently acquired Voigtländer Perkeo II.
