Summer Wrap-up: FanimeCon 2009 Part 1 Cosplay

Well, summer's over for me and I want to share some photos I took over the past few months:

I attended Fanime for the first time back in May. FanimeCon is the largest anime convention in Northern California and it's held annually at the San Jose Convention Center in downtown San Jose.

Like any anime convention, FanimeCon was packed with cosplayers. They invaded downtown San Jose and it was pretty funny crossing the street with Ash Ketchum, Naruto and Hatsune Miku.

Since this was my first con, I didn't feel comfortable taking pictures of strangers. As the day progressed, however, I just went up and asked people if I could take their picture and all of them said yes. I also snapped a few shots when crowds gathered for a photo shoot.
