The Little League Parade

Williamsport is a small town, and it compares to an average district headquarters in India. Yet, it holds this major event called Little League Baseball World Series every year. This is a baseball tournaments for teenagers, and most of the baseball playing countries are well represented. Since this is an international event, this little town braces for the impact. It gets its limelight in the form of press visibility etc.

This tournament was kicked off at a gala parade on the 16th of August. It was a fun evening, where most of the people from town landed on a narrow but long street to welcome the little-leaguers. Here are some photos i had taken of this occasion. Just wanted to share them.

First came in the Rolls Royces of the town. Is this a Rolls Royce?

There were several bands playing, and several teams of girls waving flags around. It was a lot of fun to see mothers holding their young kids close to them, afraid that one of the flags might hit their precious child.

This is one of the photos I had taken that day. I was trying to capture a moving object in low light. So, the shutter was left open, but I panned the camera to follow the person, adorned with shiny silver foil all over him and this is what I ended up getting. Do you like it?

And then of course, the fireworks.

Yet anothere iPhone post on the Internet

I've fallen in love

I've fallen in love for the first time

And this time I know it's for real

I've fallen in love, yeah God knows,

God knows I've fallen in love

- From Queen's "I want to break free"

Yet another material gadget love. You can bet I had a crush on every revolutionary gadget in the market. But this time, it was different, its Love.

The difference was that I was just so obsessed with this thing that I went ahead and brought it home, paying up 600 of the most valuable bucks.

Where does that take me? I'm happy. I am happy the beast of phones is in my hand. This is not like one of those other smart-phones which bites more than it can chew, and then hangs in there, half dead. This is a very capable smart-phone, does a lot of things, and does it in style.

I am not saying that this is perfect - there is no such thing as perfection in this world. Its almost there. I don't have reasons explaining why it is almost perfect. It should be looking perfect to be because I am in love with it.
