Tournament of Roses

Posted by Photographs by M.E. (Tustin, United States) on 5 January 2009 in Art & Design and Portfolio.

This float was courtesy of Farmers Insurance and was called "Family Outing." It showed a colorful country scene that provided the backdrop for a traditional “family outing.” It was a 75-foot-long float that featured a quaint country inn nestled alongside a stream that’s accented by a water wheel, stone bridge and an archway. The elegant centerpiece of the outing is a 1926 Cadillac Phaeton. I had chosen to focus my camera on this bird that was perched on a bed of roses.

Location: Pasadena, CA
