  What is the puck fair about? I know word ‘puck’ what is used in ice hockey.
  Maybe the explenation will give more idea about the second and third photo.
  Other two shots have lack of sharpness.

  A puck is a male goat. The Puck Fair is an unusual street festival in Co Kerry. The most interesting thing about the festival is the multitude of “Old Ireland” characters. I wanted to capture some of these characters. I think there is something very Irish about the way these old men dress and an old worn shirt, v neck wollen jumper and jacket over the hand is almost a uniform at the Puck Fair.

  Thanks for the lesson.
  Shots will be good for some article abot the Puck Fair but should be more sharp.
