A beautiful happy image and he link was so interesting. I knew nothing of the history. I do have vivid memories of my annual visits to the "Fair" with my parents in England and my Dad taking me on the "Big Wheel". My mother would never go on it. I was actually terrified but loved every second. :) Thanks for the memories :)

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

Bruce, I don't like to be a user of a real Ferris Wheel. Although I got used to difficult conditions during my former career, it's too dangerous for me now.
Your excellent render is a good alternative for that. Not risky, but only providing us with visual joy!
Excellent work again, Buddy!

If you think you can't accept something, try to change it. But if this doesn't work, don't be frustrated, but give it later another try. The one who perseveres wins! Please CLICK HERE to see my journal! Feel free to save my images or to add them to your favorites.

It certainly looks like one, albeit one with 28 gondolas (the perfectly spaced black lines; the white lines are not). The original Ferris Wheel was designed and built by George Washington Gale Ferris Jr., as the centerpiece of the Midway at the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, Illinois. It was a huge challenge to build but was an equally sized favorite element of the fair. It is very well described in the book, *The Devil in the White City*, by Erik Larson. I give the book, the wheel, and your image, Bruce, five stars each.
