Funnel Cakes and The Ferris Wheel

...Completes the Carnival mood, Ain't it?

 

So I gave my attendance at the Indiana State Fair at Indianapolis on Saturday and this was one the few keepers from the shoot.

 

I really missed having a wider lens in the show.

 

Now that it has been a few months without getting a new “accessory” for my camera, I’m really starting to lose my patience. I think that I will pull the trigger (or should I say, shutter :P) on a 100 mm macro or a Sigma 10-22. But I don’t know if I can justify that purchase… Yet..

 

Rants apart,  as usual – Comments and Criticism welcome…

 

 

Must View : On Black

Railroad…

 

I have always wanted to take nice pictures of railroads. But I realized how difficult is is to get a few nice pictures once I started out on this mission.

 

This place is pretty close by from where I used to live (In Reading, Massachusetts). There aren’t many trying plying in this road – so not much of a security concern. But the light was something that gave me a lot of problems… I had to fight hard to keep my tripod’s shadow out of the frame. Once I got this shot, I walked down almost a mile down in this direction in search of a bend to work on… After passing a few broken bottles and a bridge, I got to a spot which was workable. But unfortunately, those shots didn’t turn out as much as I hoped it would. At least, this was a keeper. 

 

What do you think?
