The Zipper

Posted by Susan (Fort Lauderdale, FL, United States) on 4 November 2009 in Lifestyle & Culture and Portfolio.

One of the shots from the Carnival in Margate, FL...

My job has made it impossible for me to comment on your shots during the day.....so even though I can respond to all your comments, I can't leave my own comments, until I get home!!! The nerve of them, ey????

How fast is that Ferris Wheel going? ;-)

Very colorful and psychedelic image.

@Michael: Not a Ferris Wheel..... it's called the Zipper..... and it was a big thing, swinging from side to side, and going all the way around...... I think I may have a shot, where it's not moving, so you could actually see what it is...... I'll look when I get home tonite, and if I have one, I'll post it on flickr, and let ya knoiw!!!!
