Well, TRF 2011 came to a close.  Nearly 500,000 people through the gates this year made for quite a successful year for the festival.  We, of course, had to get in one last rain day that last weekend.  I managed to take a nice spill in the mud on that day, but luckily no camera gear was damaged.  My last batch of pictures has been posted.  Not as many from this weekend as I was a little burnt out and not too motivated, but there are a few good shots in there.  I hope you all enjoyed the pictures and hopefully will return with some shots from Sherwood.

PS: Looks like I didn’t link the 7th weekend pictures to the front page, so here they are:

Texas Renaissance Festival 2011 -- 7th Weekend -- Barbarian Invasion Gallery

And 8th weekend pictures:

Texas Renaissance Festival 2011 -- 8th Weekend -- Celtic Christmas Gallery

The Scottish invaded and the kilts were many.  The weather played nice for Saturday, however Sunday was a bit hot and humid.  The kilts probably paid off in comfort with their Scottish air conditioning…  Pictures can be found by following the link below:

Also made a couple videos for your viewing pleasure:

The ghosts and ghouls were out an about at TRF this past weekend.  The Transylvanian court ran the show with many ghastly game for most excellent prizes.  The weather was quite nice and cool, but a bit too sunny for my likes.

It looks I forgot to make a front page post to announce the 2nd weekend pictures getting posted.  There were lots of fairies fluttering about that weekend.  So if you missed the pictures, you can view them by going here:

Texas Renaissance Festival 2011 -- 2nd Weekend -- 1001 Dreams Gallery

The 3rd weekend brought us a Pirate Adventure.  Surprisingly few Jack Sparrows to be seen compared to past years, which I won’t complain about.  Steampunk outfits were a little more dominant though.
