Ferris to Faeries... Whichever Wheel Spins On You Today

Ferris Wheel to Faeries Wheel for kids. And it keeps saying... You Spin ME Right Round Baby Right Round, Like A Record Baby Right Round.... Sorry, no prices for guess it right... lol!!

 

These pictures were taken on the same night as the other pictures on Yarra River, South Bank. This side shows the Rod Laver Arena, Federation Square, the park and many more things around. During late Spring and Summer, you'll see more people around doing rowing and canoeing and more. What a great place to be!

 

Again I say, Enjoy them all!!

 

P.S. Just a tip, look at these pictures on Slide show, you'll be able to see a nicer effects of what I'm trying to bring out... If you know what I mean... ;P

These images are wonderful - as are so many other pictures you have put up on tabblo. It is one thing to see a "moment" it is another to have the vision to see the long-exposure designs and patterns and plan them out. Nice work!

Thanks Paul for a great insight. Interestingly, I just take and take and take without expecting anything out of it... and Spur sponteneous inspiration just sprung out, and there they are on display for all to see. I'm glad you enjoyed them. ;P

NavyMom said at 1:26 p.m. on Jun 12, 2007:

GryphonHeart said at 1:57 p.m. on Jun 12, 2007:
Thanks Tish. ;P

Hi Marian, thanks for the comment. Yes indeed I had great fun taking the pictures that night.

LOL MOMZY...!!! Ok ok... I cheated a little, no steady hands, no Tripod, BUT using a little of my brain.... I used the bridge for my steady Tripod to stablised and captured these pictures. Yes!!! the truth is finally OUT... hahahahahaha......
PaulBarfoot said at 2:00 p.m. on Jun 12, 2007:
That's not cheating. That's ingenuity. All's fair in love, war, and photography.
GryphonHeart said at 2:01 p.m. on Jun 12, 2007:
O, heehee, thanks Paul for the support there. Ok, it's not cheating then. ;P
I have to stablised the camera to get clear pictures too right... momzy?? LOL...

GryphonHeart said at 10:45 p.m. on Jun 12, 2007:
Thank you Tavares, Yes there were lots of colours around that area that night, with 2 Ferris wheel going on. ;P

Hey there Sheila, indeed was a colourful evening. Hmmm, as for a steady hand.. maybe, lol, sometimes I get it, some times I don't, lol.. and the bridge was a great "Tripod" for me that evening. O, by the way, I have a Monopod, didn't get the Tripod, lol. ;P

Thanks Zippy. ;P

It is so cool in the slide show. thank you Simon!! I agree with Paul! Simon, you used your ingenuity to get your shots, and that is the best part.
GryphonHeart said at 10:50 p.m. on Jun 12, 2007:
Hi there Pammy...!! Thanks for your supporting comment. ;P
So, did you enjoy the Slide show version of it? I can't "create" this into a moving picture yet, as Tabblo don't have that feature yet. I'm really waiting for it.. soon I Hope!! ;P
Hmmm, I thought to put this in Twofers cos some of them are like a double coloured features too... ;P
Jerii said at 11:36 p.m. on Jun 12, 2007:

Mesmerizing!
AliDar said at 1:29 p.m. on Jun 14, 2007:
Whoa! I think I'm going to get sick! ;) ... I'm glad that the people on that ferris wheel weren't spinning as quickly as it appears in your photos! LOL. I love this! The colours you capture in your night shots are spectactular! And the presentation, especially viewing it by the slideshow option, is wonderful!
Pkeener said at 11:18 a.m. on Jun 15, 2007:

Hey Pammy!!! LOL, ttthhhaaannnkkk yyyooouuu for the 3 Ts. Heeheee... I'm glad you like it. ;P
Vinca said at 11:38 a.m. on Jun 17, 2007:
Some very nice colour effects on the wheel there. And the slide show made it more enjoyable. I love these night shots of the entire scene. Very well captured. :o)
GryphonHeart said at 12:47 p.m. on Jun 17, 2007:
Thank you very much Vinca for the encouragement. I like my pictures to be original and fun too. The slideshow does have some interesting effect to an "old" moving pictures. ;P

Siagian said at 6:37 p.m. on Jun 20, 2007:
Simon these are fantastic. i like the effects of the moving lights going round like that. very cool. nice work.
GryphonHeart said at 9:17 p.m. on Jun 20, 2007:
Hi Woody, thank you for the comment. The wheel is still around, I'll try to get a close up view this weekend. Hopefully I won't freeze in the cold or even my camera... lol. ;P

Somehow the slide show has not speed on it. If it's able to move a little faster would look better...
GryphonHeart said at 12:24 p.m. on Jun 26, 2007:
Heeeheee... I'm glad you like it Tammy!! !@.@!
Janer said at 1:36 a.m. on Jul 23, 2007:

GryphonHeart said at 9:29 a.m. on Aug 2, 2007:
