Not many playgrounds around that still have a merry-go-round. I'm guessing a few kids hadn't yet got a good grasp on physics (or the hand rails) and found out the hard way. Next thing you know some over-protective parent (like me) gets involved and the thing is in the dustbin of history.
With no one else at the park today to see me crash, I climbed on for a short dizzy spell to see what I'd been missing. I decided that I'm happier watching it spin as a bystander.

Pretty cool - I'm trying to figure out what's making the 4 dark areas, wondering if they're from several horizontal bars being seen at different angles through the partial rotation. Or maybe... Paint? LOL
ReplyDeleteNice shot - I really like the movement. Good idea.
ReplyDeleteI remember these, loved em as a kid. I always wondered whatever happened to them. Nice shot and I hope you had a nice ride.
