A great shot. Composition, light, even the "L" in off.

Holy...
Steph, this one and "Isla de Coney" just take my breath away. They are SO fantastic and I think I would seriously like prints of them.

that is one rare sky you captured. I don't usually think of coney island as more than novelty, but this is beautiful.

Gorgeous atmosphere, well done. Not too keen on the trees, but it's framed well enough to lose them (see suggested crop).
Posted 53 months ago. ( permalink )

believe it or not, i was even trying to rip down those leaves on the left when i was taking this, but i couldn't jump high enough. i had even tried something pretty close to your suggested crop, but the extra rollercoaster detail won out in the end.

the feedback is much appreciated though. we'll just chalk it up to [wo]man vs. nature.

Hey! I just thought of something... now, when you say it out loud, it sorta sounds like "sick one" or "psych_one" (cyc_one). COOL.

everybody wants to add a crop... i think your composition is perfect as is... this is a stunning shot, the sky and the neon (and the missing "l") against the darkened coaster -- perfect
