Neil Matthews submits-
Hi Joey,
This is my first submission to you and I hope you like it. I took these pictures from my kayak Fiesta Saturday when Nick took down the flag.
Thanks

Joey,
We love Father Matthew’s photos so much. Thought you might like the view from the other side of the camera.

I couldn’t have asked for a better more dedicated effort than the one put forth by our team. 35 quality posts in the First three days alone including the winning greasy pole walks, novena, procession, seine boats, Fiesta 5 K, faces in the crowd. Hell we had something like six different quality posts on Fiesta 5k alone.
Now I understand certain media outlets take heat for trying to stuff as much Fiesta content as they can into their pages but that’s the beauty of GMG. We don’t have no stinkin rules.
We don’t have to cover the puss.
We cover the good and we cover it to death.
FIESTA BABY! WE OWN THIS SPACE!
#BOOM! THAT JUST HAPPENED!
Great Job Team!
Filmed at Friday night’s formal opening ceremony. After shooting the greasy pole contest I raced back to my car, which was parked all the back to I4-C2, to lessen the load of tripod and video camera. I grabbed my still camera thinking I would only take snapshots. I wish I had kept the video camera with me, but attempted to shoot video with the Fujifilm x100. The x100 unfortunately does not have IS, or image stabilization, nonetheless the colors are good.

Hi Joey-
My little brother Owen Bryan, 11, made this Lego Greasy Pole and we thought you might want to share it on the blog. Here are a few pictures that we liked.
Buona Fiesta!
