One feature they are repeating this year is the photo booth. I had my picture taken. Eventually, they'll all be loaded on flickr (that link is last years, I don't think they've started this year's yet)

Selena and Dan V. have an attraction on the arty "midway". They're selling amulets and doing readings and such. (She's in that band Baby Aspirin you saw at the Pow Wow back in May)

One of the craftspeople selling their goods does these weird 3-d portraits. That's Edgar Allen Poe out in front.

Ran into Tom T. who had this funny kazoo in his bag. He picked it up today at a weird little music store in Annapolis.

Cool! I added the Baby Aspirin Band girl into my favorites. Thanks for sharing!
I had no image of Baltimore in my head until you started photoblogging, it seems really cool and quirky. However I have to say, those portraits are creepy.
