Under our cloudy ash strewn skies, this from my archives suggests a tropical holiday.
It was in York UK, but the wheel I think, is in Perth or Brisbane now.
There is a VIP capsule with TV and DVD, but as it is only 7 minutes per revolution, you are not going to have much time for TV.

I like a lot your picture because of the contrast you show NT.
All those cold metallic lines against the warm green leaves... Like a lot the idea!!

Nice. The plant fronds make the composition for me. It is surprisingly difficult to make a good composition out of a picturesque thing like a ferris wheel - primarily because it is so large. Well done!

Thank you Irma. I think it was painted white though.
It just felt right with the winter slowly leaving us. But I never noticed the spiky leaves before.

Thanks Toad. . . . My wife does better composition than me, but she says she hasn't the time to post them.
Too busy looking after me.

Thanks Wedding Shooter. So the wheel is still in Perth, by jove. You should have asked for a refund for dirty windows. Or a free ride.
