Default Pumpkin Show Rides

This is the first time that I have ever tried to capture Carnival rides at night. It was alot of fun and I ended up with some really abstract light patterns.
The Round-Up:
PS-08 073
Ferris Wheel:
PS-08 077
Now I'll have to wait until next summer to try some more.

clogozm, thanks for you kind comments. My camera isn't a DSLR (regretfully), so I had to use a polarizing filter to decrease the light enough to use a 2.5 second exposure in shutter priority mode. The settings on your camera may be different. The best thing to do is experiment, and have fun.
