Cambria Scarecrow Festival

Oct. 6, 2016: Images from the Cambria Scarecrow Festival taken with hipstamatic app on iPhone..

Editors Note: I've not posted for a couple weeks because of a needed vacation.

During my recent road trip, I stopped in Cambria, California for lunch and check out the Scarecrow Festival. The planned two hour stop lasted all afternoon. I just love folk art.

For the month of October, hundreds of scarecrows line the streets of Cambria, California. Now in it’s eighth year, the Cambria Scarecrow Festival features hand-crafted folk art all made by local residents.

I split my images into two albums. The first album, 2016 Cambria Scarecrow Festival hipstamatic, are black and white images taken with the hipstamatic app. The second album, 2016 Cambria Scarecrow Festival, consists of classic color images of the scarecrows.

ps - If you stop in Cambria this month, the nearby communities of San Simeon and Harmony have joined in and also display scarecrows.
