Brings back memories. Wonderful capture. #1564345Michelle Alton February 20, 2014
I'm probably one of the only humans who doesn't like circuses. It used to be just because I was afraid of clowns--but then I began feeling sorry for the animals (Movie: Like Chocolate for Water). Then, when I was 14 and a day camp counselor, we took the kids to some local little circus. And while I was standing on the carousel next to one of the kids, Bozo came over and grabbed me in the tush. Yuck! I STILL don't like clowns! But I DO like your photo.. #10980865Joy Rector February 20, 2014
love the comp #10980907Nikki McDonald February 20, 2014
Oh my, Michelle, you have had some experiences. Can't say as I blame you. But I, too, do like this one, Mitch. The inclusion of the light balances the composition perfectly and takes this right out of the "photo of someone else's art" category. Nicely seen and presented. #10980956Monnie Ryan February 20, 2014

I just love this photo for a couple of reasons. First it is an excellent photo with great colors and details!! Second it brings back wonderful memories from my youth when we would go into Boston to see the circus. A special trip. #10981215Debbie Bray February 20, 2014
A very nostalgic capture, Mitch! Love the vibrancy of this too! #10981245Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
