I remember visiting this place on a summer day back in 1997. You could crop the black bar from the left side of the image, but otherwise is a nice photo. I like the juxtaposition of the castle with the mundane of the ducks and the cars.

Nice, colorful photo. A good slice of the commercialism that seems to be present wherever you go. Having said that, it definitely makes me want a beer.

You did well to capture the cramped, busy feeling of the "Blackpool Pleasure Beach" as they call it. I've been here a few times in the 90s and this is a good representation of the place.

The white colored track on the middle left side of the photo is the "Avalanche." I suspect it got that name based on how bumpy the ride is. This was where I went on my first rollercoaster; good photo to bring back some memories.

The plain room contrasts well with the array of colors and activity seen through the window. Nice photo.

That's amazing. I consider astronomy to be a hobby of mine; clearly I should think about combining it with photography based on your photo. The tracker tool you used is excellent. Great job.

Well done. Considering you weren't using a tripod, the photo turned out quite well. I like the deep blue color along with the shadows. The location seems almost surreal.

The sunlight accentuates the age of the steps in what otherwise is a building in great condition considering its age. The photo also has a calm feeling to it, which suits the location.

Nice shot; I like how the candles are the center of attention, yet you can still get a good picture of those who are lighting the candles. Captures the ambience quite well.

Very nice. I like the monochromatic look to this and the fact that people are essentially silhouettes.

Great, almost surreal, photo. I like how the porch is visible to "prove" where this photo is taken.
