This was taken at the Local Goose fair in Tavistock. This was the closet i could get unfortunatley for the shear number of people. "The annual Goose Fair in Tavistock dates back to the early 12th century, when a Michelmas Fair held every September 29th provided the opportunity for business and animal trading, and was a social event for wives and daughters. The name Goose Fair probably came about as farmers brought their geese to market ready for fattening for Christmas, and the only other Goose Fair (in Nottingham) has a similar connection" Today its a place to sell Rubbish to people who just buy on impulse... LOL

Great shot!
The only thing I'm not keen on is the white van but he's tricky to deal with.
I love the motion and the colour and the quality of this.
Great night shot :)

Well, the main focus...your subject turned out great and you gotta love that building behind it!! The van could easily be hidden (cloned out) in Photoshop or whatever software you use! Didn't you know that stripes hide everything? ..lol..

Love the building! I may either be daft of hallucinating but I don't understand what the bright object in front of the building is. If it is a spinout....I have never seen one.

Hi Ian
So there's a van in view !! big deal are Caedes uploaders expected not only to be good photographers but magicians with CS2/CS3 whatever as well ? Perhaps these people who expect such high standards can buy the software 4 us, and send us on tutorials too !!
The spinning fairground ride caught in slow mo gives a laser image effect similar to a UFO.
As Gerry above says nice shot. :o)

Life's around said Phil the 35 millimetre cameraman. I recently went to the doctors, and said I've got icon fever, but he told me there was no cure for the disease.

Well Ian, I know this sort of work is your first attempt....

And what a great effort, I would have liked to see the town hall straightened up a bit, but well done mush.
