This selection of photographs was taken to show the working side of the carnival. The side that we rarely see, we arrive when the lights are turned on and the fun begins not when the workers go about their daily tasks to prepare the midway for our arrival. The world is very different for the people who live and work this life. There are plenty of long hours, hard work and the constant living on the road from town to town, taking down and putting up the object of our desire. This is the black and white world of carnival life.
