Goodbye Celtfest

Well ... let's wrap up Celtfest for another year, shall we?

On Friday night, I looked around and spotted this fellow dancing freestyle all by himself. I congratulate this free and uninhibited spirit.



Searson was the penultimate group on Saturday evening, and they should have been the ultimate. The sisters and the others were vivacious and enthusiastic. I would have liked to ave listened to them longer, and also as the wrap-up act of Sunday afternoon, but we had been chased by the rain.


Above: the sisters do some exuberant Ottawa Valley step dancing, which always delights the audience. Below: an intense moment.



I didn't get too close to the last group, Ecosse, but I liked the light as the sun went down in the background.




The floodlights even caught the leaves of the nearby overhead tree.



And that is likely all  that I will post of Celtfest for this year. Meanwhile, I will hope for dry weather for next year.
