Time to start sharing images I took from my 2nd trip to the Iowa State Fair. This trip was to assist the competitive barbecue team Tall & Meaty as they competed in the barbecue contest. I’ve already covered their experience. If you are interested in reviewing, click on the link below:
Tall & Meaty: Iowa State Fair: 2025
We arrived at the fairgrounds very early in the morning. Well before dawn. Not early enough for me, but plenty early. It allowed me to walk around the fairgrounds and take pictures of the serene, dark and beautiful fairgrounds before the Fair has opened.
Here is the first collection of images from my day at the Fair with Tall & Meaty.
Pro Tip: The best time to photograph neon is after it rained. The reflection in the wet ground can only be described as magical!
There are still so many pictures from this trip to the Fair left to share!
I think your “before dawn” is my favorite Fair post of yours each year!
