 Standard carnival ride. Very fun to shoot, especially with a Lensbaby! Missed focus on anything except the chains. I like it that way.

Deb, you did an excellent job on this. It's such a perfect diagonal.

Simply wonderful. I love it. The focus on the empty seat is perfect i feel. Makes many more questions than answers. Who should be sat there? Who is missing?

Deb, in response to the 1X comments, you know, you should really get that lens looked at. I mean, it's all blurry and out of focus :)

Great tones, like the diagonal lines. Makes one wonder if there was an occupant of the empty chair that perhaps got thrown off :) Great catch.

Great to see an empty chair here in focus. Very special! Perhaps the upper person should have been blurred more for a really great effect, but that's just a minor detail.

Wonderfully framed - love the expression on the girls face. Also love the empty chair and gray shy - this image is so ambivalent and rich!

a fav.

This is awesome!!! Like you, I love that only the chains are in focus, even though the people are not in focus you get a sense of extreme fun. It brings back that magical feeling you had as a kid and going to the fair for the first time.

I love this shot, the girls smile and the empty chair, the focus on the chains, all make this great.
