On my way home from work one night I noticed the flashing lights of a Ferris Wheel as I exited the freeway. A few blocks from my house, the town was having a carnival. Initially I was going to climb a nearby hill to snap some aerial shots, but as I got closer, I got sucked right in. I didn't have my tripod so I layed on the ground and used the curb and temporarily kidnapped an orange construction cone.
The place was eerie. When I explore in the dark(which I do too often than I should) my mind goes wild! I imagine freaky things that could happen and think of what could be hiding in the shadows. I was all alone until some kids on bikes pulled up. At first I thought they were carnies, then I thought they were a high school couple. I yelled out into the darkness "will you come model for me?"..... and they did. I wanted to get a shot of them holding hands staring straight into the camera.... but that didn't work out. The 3rd image is what I came up with. It gives me nightmares.
I was laying in the road and almost got run over to get this one
taking pictures and suddenly this ride starts to move... oh carnies and their creepiness
"take my flashlight and look creepy or sad"- captured!
I don't know how this image was made but I think it has to do with how dirty my light sensor is. Oh well! I think it looks awesome!
