Not really sure where this belongs. My wife and I took a very short (three block walking) trip to our local small town carnival. The local fire company has been doing these as long as I can remember and I can remember a looong time - back to my early childhood!

I grew up in this town moved away for a number of years and returned maybe 25 years ago. I bet it has been more than 15 years since we wandered down to the carnival even though it is so close. What I do know is the last time I was to the carnival, this fast spinning ride was called "Starship 2000"! :eek::D

Anyway, I decided to zoom in on the lights and with the slow shutter speed came up with this image and many others similar to it. Nothing out-of-this-world :D but I liked the effect.

Canon 30D and 24-70mm f/2.8L lens.

1/6 sec @ f/10; ISO 800; 0 EV
