[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Taken at the fairground beside the Christmas Market on Edinburgh's Princess Street Gardens, showing the Bungydome, the traditional Carousel, and the Scot's Eye (the Big Wheel). I used a 30 second exposure to show the movement, and blur the lights into almost solid blocks of colour. Sadly this is the last few days for the Market, but then the fun really begins as Edinburgh gears up for a four day Hogmanay (New Year) Celebration.

Hi Alex, the long exposure worked great. The wheel on the right looks spectacular and the tree in front stands in nice contrast and looks very interesting. I think the right side of the image, if cropped out is just brilliant and would make a very nice second version of this photo.

  • Great
