Hey everyone, hope you are all doing well!
I am back to share another photograph that I took at a carnival. Before I shared a ferris wheel that looked a bit different than the traditional Ferris Wheels, but this one is a traditional one (that I used to ride).
I did take this photo at an interesting angle....just for something a bit different. I like to do that sometimes, rather than just get a straight on photograph. What do you think of the different angle? How about the photo in general?
I know most don't like the Ferris Wheel or fast rides....but I would love to know your favorite ride (if you didn't answer before...or I'd love to know your next favorite!).

I am glad you like the photo and the angle, thank you :) Yes....I thought this would be unique, and I am glad some people like that!
I don't think I have seen the Musical Express!

I love the Ferris wheel and the Tilt-a-Whirl. Your photo is awesome, it appears to be a lot higher in the air! I also love the Merry-go-round:)

Oh yeah, the Tilt-A-Whirl, that's probably my favorite! Thank you, it does seem that way! Oh yeah, the Merry Go Round is good too, shared a photo of that the other day.

@kobesbuddy I don't remember the music as I haven't been on that ride in forever, but that's great!

I like the photo. The angle gives the picture a different perspective. I like watching Ferris wheels more than riding on them

I am not sure what my favorite ride (if I were to pick one) would be.
Probably b/c I don't generally do carnival rides in the 1st place.

I thought it would make for a fun shot doing it that way :) The Ferris Wheel can be fun....so I understand. I love roller coasters more myself

That's the ferris wheel that I used to ride when I was young. I wasn't happy that those chairs would swing a bit.
My favorite is the roller coaster and the scrambler (don't know if they even still have that ride anymore)

I think they are making ones that are more stable - from the Ferris Wheel I saw last year. But yes...we always had these same ones growing up.
The roller coasters are nice, and so is the Scrambler (for us it was called the Sizzler)

It is an interesting different angle. Shows no one is on the ride.
