    Loupey,

    This doesn't work for me, I find the roller coaster ride too distracting, a little less DOF would work well here. I also think that a little more definition in the dome would help the photo a lot.

    I'm with Roger here. I think would work without the (white) rollercoaster in the BG. It's very distracting. The top right of this shot (people against the sky) I like.

    Me too.
    Walk around it and get a clearer sky background rather then the roller coaster.

    King's Island?? Six Flags??

    I would like this better if the center part of the ride were not as dark. Personally I like the roller coaster backdrop.

    This comes close to highlighting the insane compression of space in many theme parks where everything is on top of everything else.

    How about some photos from this century?
