Dancing on Congress Avenue – Austin, Texas

Yes, I was recently at the Dia de los Muertos Parade, the Mexican holiday celebrating the day of the dead. It happened about a week and half ago, just before Halloween.

This is at the finale, on Congress Avenue, which is the signature North-South street in downtown Austin. In the distance, you can see the capitol of Texas.

It’s the first time I used the Olympus 75mm f1.8 lens at an event like this. In full frame terms, it’s equivalent to a 150mm f3.6, which worked surprisingly well.
