The Circus Performance

Hello, my friends, photography lovers.

Today I want to share with you photos of the circus performance.

As a child, I really loved going to the circus. Of course, I went there on my own, and to my parents. It was mostly the father.
His sister lived near the city circus and could buy tickets for us at the circus ticket offices. Then we would come to her, pick up the tickets and go to the circus.

Unfortunately, the modern circus has become completely different. As a rule, this is not a real circus performance. This is a show with numbers that belong to the circus.

But there is no live orchestra that performs music, clowns began to joke like stand-up comedians, and the complexity of the numbers became simpler.

Or maybe I just grew up and stopped understanding the beauty of the circus.

Nevertheless, we sometimes go to circus performances with the whole family. It's quite expensive, but at least some entertainment for us and the children.
The last performance featured gymnasts, acrobats, and horse riders. There were trained dogs, bears, monkeys.

I have a negative attitude towards animal training. It seems to me that this is contrary to the nature of animals. Let only the demonstration of human dexterity and strength remain in the circus, and the animals will be left alone.
But so far this is not the case.

The hall was half empty, I think because of the high cost of tickets. We bought cheaper tickets and found ourselves on the side of the central exit of the artists. But it was still clearly visible.

My smartphone turned out to be too weak for shooting in semi-darkness, and even objects that move at high speed in the arena.
But something did work out.
