Fringe of the Fringe

As week two progressed I found myself standing as always on a bollard about the middle of the High Street. Scanning the street around me looking for more and more shots to take.

balloon man Mike was as ever very industrious. Some of his creations; as with every year, are amazing. Sponge Bob Square Pants, Crusty The Clown and Spider-Man, to name but a few.
His maniacal laugh at the crowd that gathers round his creative artistry in latex.

I kept scanning the crowd Article 19 were out promoting their show "Volpone."
When you have a great looking cast great costumes and make-up it's something good to photograph.



Article 19 I found out were like me, "Fringe of the Fringe." They had brought their show to Edinburgh, during the Fringe, but you wouldn't find them in the guide. So everything was about promotion. Probably part of my downfall as a "one man show"
