Taken at Kennywood Park, our local amusement park.

Red Bull gave me some tips a few weeks ago so I ventured out with my mini tripod, found garbage cans for support,
and gave it a go. This is the first time I have tried this and it was fun.

Hope you enjoy!

    Nice photos. Looks like the mini tripod/trash can worked out for you. If you ever have the chance to go to a big fair with lots of crazy rides, definately go. Lots of great opportunities to get some neat shots!
