Yesterday we went over to Whitby on the motorbike.
As we drank our tea we heard the music and lo and behold a Morris Dancing
group were entertaining the passers by.
I just cropped my picture as this chap caught my eye.....a very odd shot indeed!
We had a good afternoon out on the bike.
In two weeks time we will be in the Isle of Mann for the 2008 TT.
Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh!!!!!
For more odd shots visit Katney.

That is odd, really...
He seems to get a lot of fun out of it...
I haven't seen a Morris Dancer in years - possibly fiftyfive. It's good shot.
Decidedly odd, but he seems to be enjoying himself.
Interestingly odd this way but now I wonder what you cropped out!

You are a lucky one, Isle og Man! We are dreaming of it, and some day we will come on my husbands old Norton.Nice picture.
I'm not sure what a Morris Dancer is but I have google to help me. Like Daryl, I wonder what you cropped out!
Well, he looks very odd to mae. Was he going it alone?
I like your poem.
I've always thought Morris Dancers a bit odd anyway.
Maybe you'll snap some Manx dancers soon, not to mention some fully battle-clad Viking Warriors..
Smile.
That is really odd!
Poor fella -- it takes lots of guts to dress in that costume and march playing his music. Perhaps the rest of us are odd to him!!!!!!!
He might be enjoying himself though! Traditions like this tend to be colorful...thanks for the input!
I often see Morris Dancers when I play at local fetes, I must get some photos this year.
I don't even know what a Morris dancer is!! But I really like his costume and the photograph!

When we were in England I loved Whitby.
When we were in England I loved Whitby.
From the bit that I have seen of Morris Dancers, I would say they must all be a bit odd.
Well, I have no idea what a Morris Dancer is, but it looks like it would have been fun to find out!
Was he blowing on a whistle as he danced? Very cool.
Interesting ODD SHOT.
