American Carnival

Come celebrate the community, connection, and quirkiness of the American carnival. Stunning photographs by David Skernick capture the magic of the rides and games and the carnies and clowns who make the carnival their home. Meet Kat the sword swallower, Ember the fire eater, and the Human Fuse, Brian Miser, who sails through the air on fire! As day fades to dusk and the lights come up, smell the cotton candy, feel the vertigo of the Silver Yo Yo, and hear the laughter and screams. The panoramic images allow you to see the fair as if you were standing there yourself.By David SkernickDavid Skernick resides in Woodland Hills, California, with his wife Ria and dog Chewy. He spends as much time as possible traveling, photographing, and teaching workshops along the back roads of America.93 color & b/w photos93 color & b/w photos
