The Dutch Elf Fantasy Fair has grown into to a major event in the country for people wanting to be someone different for a day. Being regular visitors we can say it was unsurpassed. A beautiful ambiance, fantastic people, and the best weather in the world. It is difficult to explain what this fair actually is all about, but the pictures will tell the story using all colours of the rainbow.
While having fun at the Elf Fantasy fair in Arcen last September, we were being photographed by lots of people. Likewise, such events draw professional photographers and very skilled photo amateurs too (or I would better call them unpaid professionals). One of those (Gertjan) did some very nice portrait shooting, and you can admire more of his his work at the pixiephoto gallery. This photo just came in via email last week. Every year there’s an Elf Fantasy Fair in Haarzuilens near Utrecht (NL). This year it was also being organized at the venue of the Castle Gardens in Arcen. Naturally we went dressed in our renaissance costumes and had great fun. Although it is very difficult to do some serious photo shooting while you are part of the parading itself, I managed to make a few photo’s which are presented in the gallery as usual.
Every now and then you must do something extraordinary in your live. Since we were always interested in fantasy fairs and medieval related kind of festivals we came to the conclusion it was time to dress up and visit the Castlefest in costume. All clothing we wear is self-made by my wife. Actually she’s becoming a pretty good clothier.
