Free carnival ride admission for people. :smile: Show up late when activity is low with your big old camera in hand and ask the operator if he would throw some people on for a reduced ride so you can get some photos.

Worked for me.

Nice shots! They show the same qualities that have always made the Graphic stand out, and with today's film stock it gets even better.

Did the guy in the last shot lose his cookies moments after you snapped? He looks none too comfortable.

As far as I know, he still has his cookies. It would have been great though if he did lose them, right when I hit the release. :smile:

Lets take a better look now,

He's thinking it over....

Terrific quality on the enlargement! What lens on your camera?
