Very nice, Detlef! So many things going on here, yet it does NOT view as a cluttered shot since the perspective gives each subject its own place in the frame. Love all the motion. Did you happen to take a diagonal of this spinning ride alone? What were your exposure numbers here? Good choice of shutter speed--you managed to capture both the motion of the ride and the sunset in the background just perfectly. Nice job.

  I am always happy to hear/see a comment from you Piper.Thank you!
I wanted to get the longest exposure possible for this image, I was using 50 asa film/velvia...my aperature was at 22 so my shutter was problably somewhere around 5 sec or so..( most of the shots were actually done after dark...so this is special to me)..these kind of shots you can only imagine the outcome...gut-feeling..thru experience...but you never know...so you try this and that,- all angles and so fourth..
I have several verticals but no one image is the same as the next one..
again thank you for your comment..

  Honestly, I thought you'd place a lot higher with this. You should have, anyway. This is an awesome image. Congrats.
