Adelaide Color Run 2014 (yes, I know colour is spelt wrong, it's how they spell it)

[mickyj]

I wanted to take my daughter out on a day with difference. We went to the color run in Adelaide.
I had every intention of wrapping my camera in plastic protecting coverings but in the end, I left the camera naked and it managed to stay clean.
Here are some of my favourite shots.

Great colours and looks like a lot of Fun for some or should that be the Young :D
Though wondering why you have not put these images in the CC Forum

[mickyj]

I put them here as the description for this section was for fun images that don't need a CC. I did not take the photos with any real aim to get the best photo nor do I think I got them 100% correct. I took them for a bit of fun and know if I tried harder I could have done better. If you think that they are worthy of a CC and look good then maybe I should rethink :)

Ta for THAT cautionary tale, Andrew.
MickyJ: Nesxt time set camera to Monochr:Dme!

[mickyj]

he he, I stood well clear and used a telephoto. I have used the lens and body for other events and also checked it out. They are fine :)

I get the point hence I did take material with me to protect the gear, it just happened that I found a great place to me and I had the wind blowing from behind me :)

Those lenses in the post are a right mess !!!

Looks like fun for some.

I went on a bit of a google fest as I had never heard of this event. It seems this company grossly mismanaged their inappropriate use of an image. The possible damage to equipment used at and humans participating in these events is quite concerning.
