March of the Clans

March of the Clans during the Opening Ceremonies of the CNY Scottish Games brought out the senior clansmen. A proud people, the Scots.

Great shots Scott! ; Looks like a great day.

Ah, there's nothing like the sound of a pipe band. ; Great shots, Scott. ; Too bad there's no audio to go with them.

 

[Grumpwurst]

With my Scot-Irish background I would've been in heaven there. ; Would've drove my wife nuts though....she thinks I'm nuts because I think there is no such thing as too much bagpipe

You'd have been in heaven, Ray. ; The Massed Band parade had hundreds of bagpipes and band competitions all afternoon. ; Solo ones were done in the morning. ; From the moment I entered the festival grounds and until I left, 6 hours later, I could hear pipes being played.

 

[mSummers]

Nice work Scott! ; I can almost hear the bagpipes.

 

[Grumpwurst]

I hear the bagpipes AND the drums. ; Nothing like Amazing Grace on the pipes....

Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling

 

[PolynesianMedic]

Great shot Scott. ; The color is LEAPING off of my screen followed by the sound of the pipes and drums.

 

[HW]

I'm with ya on that Ray. They are the highlight of any parade.
nice Shots Scott

 

[Scottwdw]

Thanks, Howie and Jeff. ; There was some dancing gong on, too. ; Here's a young lass competing in the Highland Dance.
