Fête du Citron: Cinema - the Holes in the Fishnet


It wouldn't be a parade without the girls. This one could have done without the holes in her tights - it was already cold enough! Good for them that they kept up their smiles regardless of the chill in the air.

These shots were taken during an hour of sunshine. Later it disappeared behind the clouds, the wind came up and it was brrrrrrrrrrrr.

  1. Well, at least she has gloves on to keep her warm. Actually, the mesh has the look of a body stocking type of garment ... still cold, I'd guess.

    Love the movie camera yesterday. Must be time to make limoncello!

  7. Jilly, only a girl would notice a hole in another girl's fishnets. A man would have looked at... other things.

    How brave these girls are! In the sunshine it looks like fun but with the cold we're experiencing, brrrr !
