Fremont Parade 2014 - Page 46

More than a month has passed since Fremont 2014. The OCC contributors to this thread have done themselves proud. Thanks to all of you.

In my opinion, this event has become an iconic celebration of the joy of life. Unlike other events that feature public nudity, Fremont is not burdened with angry in-your-face politics or obvious commercialization. It is just creative free spirited fun. In addition to the painted bikers, there are some very creative costumes etc further back in the parade.

Since the event is sponsored by the Fremont Arts Council, I personally make a point of looking for the art component ( immediately after closely admiring the individual participants

). This year, three photos grabbed my attention in that context, all taken by Klondike/Davidavin. They reminded me of two specific artists and an imaginary character.

The first one immediately reminded me of Botticelli's Venus, probably because of the lady's instinctive arm over her breasts.

The second one is similar to Raphael's well known series of paintings featuring bathers. Willie T also posted some nice photos in this category, but something about the well composed shot of the natural beauty of this Asian lady caught my attention.

The third photo requires some imagination, perhaps like something from The Brothers Grimm. I think of it as the Frog Princess who is kissed on the head by a Magic Butterfly and is turned into a human woman. Davidavin composed the perfect image that begs to have a back story, so this is mine. I haven't quite figured out what happens next to a green skinned human princess later in the story.

Sometimes, in the rush to digest all of the immediate content, some photos deserve to be revisited and viewed through a different lens.

Did anyone ever find (or take) a picture of the three star girls getting painted? They're quite the trio.

I have this from 2011 but nothing this year. Pretty sure it's the same brunette. Same paint job...

One of my favorites from 2014 by far. Caught her at the end of the day all cleaned up.
