Kym Tenove (right) was a top 8 finalist of the 2007 Miss Sun and Salsa Pageant, part of the Sun and Salsa Festival held every summer in the Kensington of Calgary. She and others were doing some Salsa dancing in the parade.
This is one of the many photos I took at the 2008 Calgary Stampede Parade. Though not seen here, she is holding the Canadian flag, as one of two flag holders, leading the Canadian "Regimental Pipes & Drums" group.
This is Miss Canada International 2008 Alesia Fieldberg. I previously photographed her after she was selected "Miss Calgary, AB", but my photos then turned out badly, as seen here, since it was dark and she was wearing funny glasses.
This is the lead of Fanfarenzug-Strausberg marching band from Germany. I'm still wandering what it is the guy in the middle is holding. It looks like a baton with a bag attached. Their web site has some info on them, and time in Canada, but it seems to be all in German, as one would expect.
