  Thanks Alexis. The extreme wide angle is very good but it does create geometric distortion at the edges. I had to do some work to compress the ferris wheel to something which wasn't quite so oval.

  Thanks Susan. It was pretty still in places or else flowing so smoothly that there were no ripples.

  Thanks Renee. The ferris wheel I think is a permanent fixture.
