Dallas State Fair

The State Fair of Texas at Dallas is an annual event. After postponing to go there for about three weeks we finally went there on 17th. This was our first trip to the fair. I was more enthusisatic for this event provided a nice venue to try some night photographyon my Canon DSLR.

The fair is supposed to be largest in United States and has been held since 1886 and from web sources has always been held near to Cotton Bowl stadium.

There are lots of cool rides but more than that I am sur e people are there for the food. From regular sandwiches to stuffs like corny dogs, fried ice cream, fried coke and bana split fried. I guess you name the stuff they will fry it for you... oh I forgot to mention Turkey Legs

Still didnt have a tripod so lot of pics came out shaky.. some better ones
