I spotted a Ferris wheel on the way home from work and decided to take Big Bertha to the carnival. This was the perfect location to experiment with different camera settings.
This ride below looked boring until it started moving. I experimented with shutter speed.
This ride below was covered in lights. I placed the camera on the tripod, selected a slow shutter speed and zoomed the lens in and out until I liked the results.
More fun with a slow shutter speed and moving the camera.
The Ferris Wheel!

Those are great shots. Thanks for sharing these tips.
It’s amazing what can be done with a camera by a person who knows what they’re doing. Great photos!
