Whisker Row Shootout 2010 Cowboys and Horse, originally uploaded by dagnyg.
We went to the Shootout on Whiskey Row Saturday 7/24/2010. We went last year too. It was quite nice. Several Western re-enactment groups performed. The dress in period costumes and use old west style firearms – with blanks of course. Still pretty loud.
They put on a very nice show, and this is an annual event. I ran into our mayor there too. Said hello to him and he acted like he knew me for years, though this was the first time I introduced myself. Politicians.
I shot this with my Nikon D80 using a Nikon 85mm prime lens.

We went to the Whiskey Row Shootout on Saturday, July 25, 2009 in downtown Prescott. Cowboy reenacters did melodramatic skits, shot blanks from old west style guns, dressed in period costumes. It was fun.
I shot many of the photos with a 18 mm wide angle lens. Wide angle lenses have a very deep depth of field, just as telephoto lenses have a narrow one.
My flickr photo collection of the event is here.
