Hi Richard,
On first look my re-action was.... "why didn't he get right in front of them 
blowing bubbles in his direction?" Bubbles sharp in foreground and people 
out of focus in bkgd.?  Second thought, "why not directly behind them 
blowing bubbles towards the rising sun?" With the bubbles being lit by the 
rising sun, heaven only knows what kind of effects could come from that 
angle?

However, maybe there wasn't space of ground in front, nor behind the sunrise 
greeter's, so you were left with the space and angle you had. Or, you being 
in front of the group may have disturbed the equilibrium of the universe! 
;-)

It's still interesting, but the next year give the other angles a bit of a 
try if possible. ;-)
