Hello folks.
I took this photo at Tivoli in Copenhagen. It was a hot day in early June and suddenly when I walked, there was this solar eclipse :-).
The Tivoli Garden opened on August 15, 1843 and is one of the oldest amusement parks which have survived intact to the present day.
This attraction called Himmelskibet, or The star flyer, was opened in May last year. It has got a height of 80 meters and a maximum rotation speed of 70 km/h (~ 43miles/h) when sitting in those chairs fastened by chains (oh no, never in my life!)

Dear Per,
Very nice composition.
People in chinese shadows are really well rendered.
Sharpness is excellent!
Thanks for sharing,

hello Per,

Very Good composition! I could not antecipate it from the thumbnail...
great! the human figures are excellent!!

Hi Per, Very original picture with the sun behind that you get an optic great effect. Congratulation.

Hello Per, rich note and good photo, like if the attraction would be built to look like this (the globe on the top = sun).

Regards, Matěj

Very unique shot, Per. I have seen this ride online. Oh my, I can't believe people would actually go up there. I really like the way the sun is hidden by the top of the ride and how clear the silhouettes of the people are. Craziness... LOL
Kind regards,
Shelly
