This picture made me laugh when voting on the challenge and again while looking at it now! These people all look terrified - can't imagine why people do this for fun!!! You'd never catch me on a ride like this. I like B&W conversion - ads to the terror atmostphere a lot. Your fair pictures are always nice.

Nice clarity on the facial expressions. I think the B&W was a good choice for this shot.

De gustibus non est disputandum ...

It can be a pleasure, but I'm not sure it is for the girl in this shot!
BTW I think the shot meet the challenge, but is not able to make me anxious to try it
