At the Fêtes de la Nouvelle France in Quebec in August the streets are full of performers in seventeenth century dress, doing street theater, serving food, singing and entertaining. The five day festival has a contagious energy, but some participants are self-conscious and tend to pose for photos. This young lady responded with a spontaneous and humorous, tlt of the head and smile that makes a much more lively portrait.
