Carousel at rest

The carousel.

This carousel is part of a mini traveling fair that's now set up in downtown Salem. At last Henrietta was willing to get on a horse. She's a bit timid and had only wanted to sit in a bench--there's only one bench in the carousel.

I don't think a photo can capture how spectacular the lighting around the carousel was. We were inside the Ghostbusters laser tag when the lights were turned on, so when we stepped out it was like everything had undergone a magical transformation.

Herschell-Spillman Carousel, Balboa Park, San Diego, California. Built originally in 1910 for Luna Park in Los Angeles. It has a menagerie of hand carved wooden animals, all original, except for two small ponies, the original hand-painted murals surrounding the upper portion of the carousel, and the original military band music.

I took a lot of pictures of this carousel trying to get a sense of movement whilst keeping some of the ride in focus and I like how I've captured that plus the grin of the girl.
