 Shot this at an election rally for the Socialist Party. I thought this kind of hairwear got out of fashion ages ago. but she is wearing it proudly!

I realised only afterwards that the VR of the 18-200 made this shot. Handheld at 1/40s would have been shaky, but fortunately I have VR switched on by default (lazy photographer...)

Interesting photo. His eye kind of bothers me the way it shows in his glasses.
I like the idea after seeing so many hats, nice job..

I like the sharpness of the focus, as well the composition, color and crop (have it tilted make it more interesting).
