The Texas SkyWay Gondola is a relatively new ride at the State Fair of Texas. I juxtaposed these 2 gondolas passing each other against the Texas Star Ferris Wheel yesterday afternoon! (This is only one image))

  Jeff- This is one of them WOW pictures my friend. What incredible photography this is. You pov and incredible timing gave a look that is hard to define other that it is beautiful, unique, and an attention holder. The framing is fantastic and I love all the different shades of blue. The Texas flag in the center makes for a gorgeous color balance. The lines formed and coming out of the center is awesome and I even love the clarity of the lettering on the gondolas. A winner in my book. Remarakable work my friend.
Have a great day.

  Thanks Everyone Very Much!! I had to keep waiting for the gondolas to get into position to capture this one so I could get the Texas flag on the Ferris Wheel too. It was worth the effort! Timing is Everything! Jeff
