Lord Provost - Tartan Day Parade

Yesterday, I had the privilege of photographing Bob Winter, Lord Provost of Glasgow, Scotland, and the Tartan Day Parade in New York City. Tartan Day is a celebration of Scottish heritage held on April 6, so the parade followed on Saturday this year. April 6 is the date on which the Declaration of Arbroath, a declaration of Scottish independence, was signed in 1320. There are over 6 million people in the United States that claim Scottish heritage, so yesterday was quite the turnout!
