Great shot Keith. How we used to love it when the fair came to town on Carnival week, and we all loved the dodgems, although I remember we called them bumper cars!! Very well framed and a beautifully taken against the sea.

What fun are these?! :D We call them "bumper cars" and gosh, aren't they great fun?! :D This view brings me back to Santa Cruz beach boardwalk when I was a kid and our community park or our school would have an outing to drive the 2 hrs to get down there. An older, less-ride-filled amusement park, the boardwalk was still wonderful to walk on and the rides were still plenty, though not as current as the newer parks. The nostalgia was fantastic! And...the bumper cars were the BEST there! Two different ones, with the best being very large...you could really get some fantastic mash-ups going on there! :D

I like the strong colours Here Keith and some good horizontals and verticals to work with. Fun as a kid the way Janet points out but for me less so (but nothing to serious.)

Oh, what fun! I remember riding in something similar when I was a kid, bumping into one another. That was on Caroline Bay in Timaru in the South Island.
