Post Funtastic Wheel

Ferris Wheel

aka..Ferris Wheel from Funtastic. I had a chance to visit a fair in the nearby city today with my girlfriend. I didn't allow to take my Tripod when we got to the fair, but I understand that it would be a burden for us to carry it around when we get on the rides and stuff.

Anyway, I ran back to get the tripod after we finished riding everything, and I was given 30 mins to shoot freely. I ran to the Ferris Wheel, because that's one thing I'd been wanting to shoot for a long time.

That's my story behind this picture. So, I want to share this hard-earned shot with everyone here. Hope you like it. Any comments/thoughts are welcome.
