FRIGHTFUL

Rosenberg, Texas

People on the Big Drop Carnival Ride at our County Fair.

You get a nice view at the top... for a second or two. And then you plunge back to earth.
Not for me.

A great capture with the flag glowing in the backlight. I love to watch but wouldn't go on it! V

I have always loved carnival rides like this ...... and even as a senior citizen, I still do!!

Mieke WA Minkjan		08-Oct-2013 06:56

sue anne		07-Oct-2013 22:26
I wouldn't go on that either!

Karen Stuebing		07-Oct-2013 21:14
I think it looks like fun. :) Wonderful in the low light. V.

Chris Spracklen		07-Oct-2013 20:18
Fine silhouette work, Lynne. V I'd hate it too!

Nor for me! I hate heights! But a terrific shot, the silhouette makes it more impressive and frightful. V

Irene Wehrli		07-Oct-2013 17:14
You must really get a wonderful view from up there, but you have no time to enjoy... So I take the time to enjoy your lovely picture which is so beautifully presented in this wonderful evening light! Irene

They always freak me out a bit.

Ann...		07-Oct-2013 16:08
I love the people in silhouette and the flag in all it's colourful glory. A great shot. V

Walter Otto Koenig		07-Oct-2013 15:08
Very cool shot with this back lighting. Amazing what people will do for fun at the Fair. "V"

Frank Brault		07-Oct-2013 14:15
A terrific image. Love the light and silhouette. The ride is not for me either. :) V

Faye White		07-Oct-2013 11:35
Too scary for me!

Stephanie		07-Oct-2013 10:49
No way I would get on this ride! I like the lighting thru the flag along with the silhouette ride! V

Janice Dunn		07-Oct-2013 08:13
Too, too scary for me - good shot Lynn

Great silhouetted spectacle..frightful for me! v.

Don Mottershead		07-Oct-2013 05:33
Nicely balanced composition.

Coleen Perilloux Landry		07-Oct-2013 04:40
Not to some people, but to me, yes.

laine		07-Oct-2013 03:35
I'm having trouble preparing myself to go see Sandra Bullock in Gravity...I could never go on this!!

carol j. phipps		07-Oct-2013 03:06
Excellent composition.

Julie Oldfield		07-Oct-2013 00:41
I really like how you exposed this. V

wernere01		07-Oct-2013 00:19
The most terrible moment is when it stops on top. Position of the seats changes, so that you are looking straight down to the ground. Had to do this with my daughter a few years ago. Never again!!!

Great Shot. I saw this ride on the news. Don't know who is more screwy the inventor or the people who actually ride it!
