This wheel is turning
I could not decide which image to post so I thought I may as well post both images.
One a wider view the other more of a close up. This is my home town Worthing in Sussex where they have just erected this wheel for the summer months so I thought I would pop along to capture some long exposures, there are a few draw backs to shooting from the pier at this time of year.
one is you are also shooting into shade which means very contrasty images on the beach and sea front buildings, it was not the best sky but hey it is what it is. Secondly shooting from the wooden boards of the pier means there is a bounce when someone walks past, I lost count of the number of long exposures I had to abandon each time i heard footsteps behind me when someone came up to me to ask me what I was shooting !!!.
Thirdly why on earth did the council put up a cheap wheel which does not have any lights on it, it would be so much more photogenic and attract far more people if the thing was lit up at night .
