Paris Ferris Wheel

Amusement park rides such as the Ferris wheel are great subjects for long exposures, but part of an amusement park ride such as the one you see above shows construction detail.

I like taking pictures of pieces of things because it gets me thinking about how much work it takes to make things. Take the Ferris wheel, for example, like a bridge, it takes years to construct one.

Thinking about construction lets me know that life is complex as the things we make symbolize our lives.
