Hi Paulo. A nice colourful and comprehensive coverage of the attractive event. Hope you have advised the organisers of the existence of your album.

I did an impromptu coverage of the Chippenham Festival's varied displays by a number of Morris-Men folk groups a couple of years ago - spoke to some of the participants and gave them the google album address and advised they could download and use any for their publicity leaflets - which several of them did. They perform for the love of it and I was more than happy to let them use any of the captured shots for free - and I got to see the new brochures in due course.
