The Ferris wheel is a fixture of Seattle's waterfront. The image was captured on a bluebird day. The rain and clouds were added with Topaz Texture Effects ( Sorry Seattle ). Poster Edge was also applied.

Wonderful and fun image. It works great in (almost) monochrome (do I see some blue in it?). Outstanding composition. I love the 1/4 view. The lamp post is just right, and makes me smile. Wonderful processing. The addition of raindrops works for Seattle.
Gary,
Greetings. I like the graphic look of the Ferris wheel and lamp post. The water drops are interesting. I can't decide if I like them or not. Interesting, though. Maybe that's enough. Thanks for posting.
Cheers,

Great graphic B&W image. Nice tonality also.
Now that Michael has mentioned it, the rain drops only make sense with an explanation. If I saw the image without explanation, I'd not want them there.
I love this image, Gary! I love the composition and the graphic look. And I love the water - it really make you think - it could be an underwater scene except for the fact that it's a Ferris wheel![]()
