Carnival ride
Posted By: Ash, 09-20-2009, 12:23 AM

Yesterday was our carnival's big street parade and theme park opening - anyone in Qld make it there?
My second time, and it was a good show.
Rides weren't as impressive though.
Anyway had fun - some pics for your enjoyment...

Our town crier:

Had to stand in quite close to the ride in the last shot - so needed 12mm at f/16 to get an 8sec exposure.
Others were shot at 15-18mm at f/8-f/11 to get 5-10sec exposures.

He's quite a character, making a cameo at just about every big event in town.
Thanks Dave & Marc.
