Annual Louisville Labor Day Parade

I was living in 'olde town' Louisville, and I heard a ruckus outside my door, which backed up to the alley...garden-level apartment! I sought out the source of what sounded like a big party, and I found the staging area for the Louisville Labor Day Parade. Well, I photographed my sixth parade last week, and here are some of the visual treasures that I discovered.

As always, prints are available in variety of sizes, mounted, and ready to be hung, compliments of the fine work of Picture This Superior.
