These are nice snapshots that show the diversity of features of a festival celebrating travel a century ago; cars, travelling costume, trains, traction engines and steamboats. Many people have their back to the camera in these images. I could tell you to be bold, to go up to people who are dressed up and ask them to pose for you face-on. But I would rather you stayed true to your nature, and went quietly looking for other onlookers to photograph. I would love to see your over-the-shoulder shot of an old man looking at young people, a down-at-heel teenage boy looking at a couple in a smart car, a policeman looking at gang members, parents watching their young sons playing Saturday morning soccer, a young mother looking at her baby etc. More cropping and editing each image will focus viewers' attention on its highlights.
