A magic frame for that beautiful composition, Sharon. feels like the exploding colours want to break out. The difference between the moving colours & two persons standing still is one of a kind. Philosophical & great! All the best & safe travels, Fritsch.

WOW! What a wonderful shot! I love the lights and movement. Lovely silhouettes as well.

a miracle of lights and colours, just like in former days.
It revokes nearly forgotton memories in me.

The fairs and attractions have a special magic at night. Your you know it to express with masters.
Warm greetings

when you use color, you use them excellently

You have caught the moment of magic here . . a fair has to be seen at night for the true magic to emerge.

Magical !!!

lovely/ and hard to get an original fairground pic, but you did it. Hope you're well - long time no comment!

...and there is no such thing in your photographing as an unimportant photo. Wonderful capture, makes me happy and some inspiration for the rest of the day.

Nice motion blur ! I like the atmosphere, too.

What a great shot with dazzling color! Really takes you there--wonderfully done.

A joyfull capture Sharon! A wonderful sense of motion..... 5-stars!!! Bravo! ;-)

What a fun and wonderful shot!

Hypnotized. We are all. :-)

Really love the silhouettes standing if front of all this movement and color.

Brilliant color, composition and motion! Something sad here....poignant!

lovely long exporure.
I like how you played with the foreground

nice silhouettes in this fairy light !!
kiss !

I never tire of these light and movement shots, all the fun of the fair!

And you just made my day! :)

a fun, festive shot.. love the light blur.. :)

I can relate to that lil'girl... every day is so important (synonymous of Unimportant when growing-up)... and those colors are like candies out of her mouth, turning wild & sweetly at the same time. Seems she's waiting to take off with the merry-go-round, like a space-ship, a fairy-tale's one. I like the mysterious distance between her and the man (dad ?) as if each one had to respect the other's total absorption here in some dreamy vision... The fair itself looks like some giant dancer in a dress knitted with light wool (and whirl ;) I could look at this image for hours, especially as i do now, all lights off, just my laptop screen light on. And i can feel your presence in distance too behind them, to complete this family of sweet dreamers... Thanks for the tour, i enjoyed it whole, Sharon, sincerly*

What a magical swirl of color. The little girl is waiting her turn to ride in quiet anticipation. Ride those magical lights!

beautiful blurs of color.

Wonderful colors and backlight !!!!!!!
Great night shot.

Great color and silhouettes!

love the night air brushing through to get this shot. as always, you are a master at silhouettes!

Beautiful photo. Great color and use of motion blur. Timeless.

Love the silhouettes in front of these spectacular colors and motion. A fine image.

Very beautiful photo

Cool lighting!

Une explosion de lumière particulièrement efficace ! Ces 2 silhouettes attentives donnent de la profondeur à la photo ! Très réussi !

beautifully done, I like very much the silhouettes against the colorful lights!

beautiful colors! I like what the long exposure did here

We don't see often colors on your blog but this picture is splendid. The little girl wants to have a ride...

Lovely! very nostalgic.

Such wonderful memories!!!

The beautifully colourful background first attracts attention, but then the silhouetted figues com into play here. They seem to be transfixed by the view... Or at least you lead us to believe it to be so.

Very beautiful! Absolutely magical in your light capture and the poignant silhouettes.

Incredible light and colours, some much energy there !

Very nice with those 2 watching in the foreground. I like it.

Love this, Sharon! I did the same thing last month at our local fair. Well done!

Vraiment magnifique!Bravo!

magnifico efecto movimiento y color!

Love the explosion of colors here!

J'aime cette délimitation entre ces 2 mondes ...

the motion blur is very well captured, a dynamic picture

WOW! incredible photo! I especially love the contrast of colors.

Such a cool shot. I like how the lights of the rides contrast with the people standing and watching them.
