The wheel, a photo from Goa, West

Photographer's Note

As my computer crashed last week, I haven t be able to post since that time.
I want to continue with my series about Zatra Festival.

A very big fair bristling with local sweets called "kaddio-boddio", food, toys, tea stalls, game stalls like the giant-wheel, tattooists, etc..

Here you can see a detail of one of the wheels from my previous post.
In the WS you can see another detail of a swing close by.

Hope you like it...

Hi Marilyn!
This does not look very safe.I think I would not enter this cabin.
A good composition with the colorful cabin at a perfect place and a nice background with the many lines of this construction.A very sharp image and great contrast with the sky.
Regards,Leo

Bonjour Marilyn,
Autant j'aurais bien aimé faire une danse avec toi dans la superbe salle dans une de tes photos précédentes, qu'ici par contre tu vois je n'irai pas avec toi dans cette roue.....pas fachée j'espère...:-)
Mais merci à toi pour la photo et la note.
Bien à toi et bonne journée.
Bon week end.
Patrick

Chère Marilyn,
Heureux que votre ordinateur ait retrouvé sa santé ! ;o)
Bel entrelacs d'acier avec cette nacelle multicolore qui se balance au gré de la grande roue.
J'ai beaucoup apprécié la proue d'une des nacelles.
Je vous souhaite une excellente journée.
Amitiés.
Philippe

Bonjour Marilyn,
Ici tu changes de registre. Beau cadrage de cette roue sur fond de ciel bleu. J'aime beaucoup le contraste des couleurs et notamment celle de la nacelle avec le bleu. Belle réalisation.
Amitiés
Christian

bonjour Marylin
ça ressemble plus a une cage qu'a un manége,j'aime bien l'enchevetrement de poutre metallique qui compose l'arriere plan.

amicalement

Hi Marilyn,

Steel profiles creating a messy background for colorful cabinet. Cabinet colors and its local design is makes it very unique. I’m agreeing with Dear Leo about it’s not looks safety. Congratulations.

Friendly Regards,

Ertugrul

Bonjour Marilyn

A good upward view of the ferris wheel. I like the tight framing & colour contrast between the red & blue. Tfs!

Hi Marilyn!
Looks like the same crickety ride I used to enjoy when I was a kid. I like the spokes creating those lines. Greetings! Danilo

Hello Marilyn
A well composed image, telling an interesting story!
Hopefully the wheel is better maintained than it looks like...
Ther cabin is an eye-catcher, and the criss-crossing lines add excitement!
Greetings,

Hello Marilyn,

Hi Marilyn!
Very nice crop of this giant wheel, presenting nice details and colours. I think it needs a little bit of care..
Regards,
Zeca

Hi Marilyn.

Behind this picture are hidden a lot of stories. This old wheel almost has lost its original colours and looks even older.
Also your composition enhances this feeling.

Well done.

Me semble pas trop secure ce manège, mais bon les consignes de sécurité ne sont certainement pas les mêmes qu'ici.
Belle image de cette foire
Amitiés

Hello Marilyn
Nice closeup view of the wheel & the cabin. The crisscrossing beams are very graphical in their symmetry. I like the colour provided by the cabin against the blue sky

Angshu

Hmmm, I don't see a gate or safety railing on this capsule! I hope noone has even fallen off. Good work with this subject. Is both interesting to see and to talk about. Colors and sharpness are very nice. Cheers Marilyn :-)

Ce que j'aime bien c'est la simplicité/le dénument de la roue. Si différente de chez nous !! Rien que cela, c'est déjà du dépaysement.
Sur un plan plus technique, bon cadrage serré.
Stéphane

Hej Marilyn,
A great detailed shot of such a big wheel. It's very interesting to look at the construction of it. It creates a nice graphism. Also the colours are appealing. Well captured!
Regards,
Lars
