Bagpiper at Erin Feis Festival
One of my assignments today was to come up with a feature photo for the local section from Erin Feis, the local Irish festival. Unfortunately for me, my schedule only allowed me to be there early in the afternoon when there wasn’t too much going on. After a few passes through the festival grounds, I zeroed in on a bagpiper near the front entrance playing by himself. I shot a few features of him only to learn later that a fellow staffer had done the same thing at the festival a few years back.
Craig Thacker plays the bagpipes near the main entrance of the Erin Feis Festival on Friday, Aug. 27, 2010, on the Peoria Riverfront. Thacker plays with the Illinois Elks, and will be greeting visitors with his tunes near the entrance this weekend.
