[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This photo was taken on the beach at Blackpool - the figure is my well wrapped up wife (it was cold and windy) and the roller coaster is the pepsi max big one.

'On May 28, 1994, Blackpool unveiled their shiny new red and blue mega-monster named, appropriately, the Pepsi Max Big One. Topping off at over twenty-one stories in height, the hypercoaster dominates over a windswept, seafront plot of land spanning two sides of the Pleasure Beach's 42-acre site, boasting eight hills, five major twisting variations to the Camelback, and 5,497 feet in all of sleek steel track. The coaster's 74-mile per hour velocity is enhanced as thrillseekers are swept through Big One's extended L-shaped course while weaving under other sections of track, below support structures, and around and through other attractions all while pulling up to 3.5 g's of force, making for an unforgettable rampage through the park during the two-minute, twenty-five-second experience'.

I like this picture. It's very well done in its simplicity - the horizon is straight, the colours are clean, the sharpness is excellent. I like it how you can see the wind on the puddle of water. Nice cloudy sky, too.

Like this one a lot Stephen love your composition, makes a change to see Blackpool without it's tower in shot. The light you have here is exceptional it makes everything so crisp and clear. Marvellous shot, well done.

Peter

Excelente colors and moment...

Congratulations!

Excellent you have captured Blackpool at its best, especially in winter.

Good composition and light. It could have been a boring shot, but it is not!

Cadrage intéressant pour cette composition très réussie! Belle luminosité et bonne netteté. Bien fait!
Bye, Jacques
