In fact, I can't remember the last time I went to a circus, but I was lucky enough to be offered a photography pass by Mark, a rare opportunity for a circus that allows no photography at all.

While the acts were all great, I think I found the most satisfaction in the reassurance that the old fashion innocence of a circus still exists in today's world. No commercialism, electronic fandanglery or modern themes; it was like stepping back in time.

Sorry to post the deluge of photos but I can't choose between them so you get the lot!
