The Zipper

    For more of my long exposure photography check out my Long Exposure Set. Also, for more night shots at the fair, check out my Champlain Valley Fair '08 Set.

    Best appreciated large. Taken at the Champlain Valley Fair in Vermont. I took a lot of photos that night, but have been so busy that I haven't had much time/energy to edit them for uploading. More to follow, a little at a time.

    My Latest , Best of the Past Year, Most Interesting, Best and Random Sets.

      Thanks all!

      Mosippy, fortunately I have never been on the Zipper. I've never really liked those kinds of rides, especially now that I'm in my mid-30's. : ) I do like roller coasters, but upside down spinning rides don't interest me at all!

      Woah, I thought this was a ferris wheel untill I saw the zipper. That's a really cool photo. good framing.

      Brilliantly captured, K.

      Love the individual trails left by each bulb. Just the right length exposure IMO

      Bahahhahahah! that was always my very favorite. i was one of the kids that would get the car to spin with a friend while it was loading.

      I went on it again, about 2 years ago. my mind has not aged... though my stomach certainly has.

      This is very good, so cool!

      Many thanks for the comments and the invite!

      Superbly done! Spot on.

    24. mosippy (57 months ago | reply)

      This tells you something about the Zipper... I went on it ONCE when I was 12, back when I actually liked such rides. After I got off I said never again! I'm surprised more people here don't have similar stories.
      Again, though, I realiy like the shot. :)

      Superb long exposure!

    28. Matt Newfield (24 months ago | reply)

      So clear. Do you shoot full frame?

    29. Kirpernicus (24 months ago | reply)

      No, Canon XSi isn't full frame.

    30. Matt Newfield (24 months ago | reply)
