Very interesting. Do I understand that the two guys that are up the posts are "the motors" that make the ferris wheel turn ? good DOF on this shot that makes the wheel come out well against the background.

  • Great

Great shot and good DOF. I like the way the children are "moving" on your picture. Good job !
