Carnival 2017

     The Notting Hill Carnival has been taking place, annually, in the streets around Notting Hill, west London, at the end of August, since the mid 1960's. Visited it again this year, on its second day, last Monday. It is a very colourfully event, and it attracts large crowds. The music systems - both static and on moving floats make it rather LOUD. Anyways here are a few of my photos taken this time around  .....

        While capturing some of the colour and the characters at the Carnival, my images don't show anything of the music and sounds, nor the aromas of the many barbeques
