Since I started off the June 5 daytime version with a carousel shot, I thought I\u2019d start off this June 11 night version with two of them.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This was supposed to be a PANO shot, but that obviously didn\u2019t work out (is that a hat or is she panning for gold?):<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

CLICK ON MOST IMAGES TO ENLARGE THEM<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As expected, good PANOs were hard to come by at night, but that didn\u2019t stop me from trying\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.with mixed results.<\/span><\/p>\n

This one\u2019s semi-passable\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026but this one looks like the legs ran out from under the horse:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I didn\u2019t post any crowd shots last time because there WERE no crowds to be seen during the day. Different story on Saturday night:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Heading over to the Wild Mouse\u2026\u2026\u2026..the sign, the view, the riders:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Nice colors, but this has to be the least-popular ride in the carnival – day OR night:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Catching fake fish is WAY more popular:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This ride\u2019s not looking particularly popular\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026until I looked over to the left and saw the line:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And here\u2019s what they were waiting for:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This looks to be a better choice than daytime\u2019s fried cauliflower:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Back over to Pharaoh\u2019s Fury, where I shot three different ways: straight iPhone photo, long exposure with digital camera on tripod and PANO:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\" \"\" \"\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There was fairly intense light everywhere with The Beast ride, as people rode in its claws. The second one is particularly strange because as I was panning from left to right, the intense red seemed to suddenly change to intense green:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

If you look in the middle of the image, you can see a weird color delineation that I guess was the camera\u2019s interpretation of the big change as I was in mid-pan.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Finally – a shot of the Ring of Fire, which wasn\u2019t running when I was there 5 days earlier because of a lack of customers:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

There are a lot of odd things going on in this pic: small reflections outside the Ring, what appear to be upside-down lettering reflections and some more of that red-green color delineation inside the Ring and a mysterious lunar appearance on the far right.<\/span><\/p>\n

It also looks like there are TWO sets of riders inside the ring in short and long vehicles. This ride has only one long vehicle. It\u2019s probable that the PANO motion recorded most of its journey and left out a chunk. I get something similar sometimes when I do motor vehicle PANOs.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

One last PANO crowd shot:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Before I finish up with the giant Ferris wheel, I have two other shots that are unrelated, except that both have a part of the Ring of Fire\u2019s ring in them. They almost<\/em> line up, so I joined them:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I happened to take a couple of regular digital camera\/long-exposure\/tripodded shots of the big Ferris wheel when I saw its color scheme change.<\/span><\/p>\n

I couldn\u2019t pick just one, so here are the top three:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\" \"\" \"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So the day\/night carnival experiment went pretty much as I would have expected:<\/span><\/p>\n

Day<\/span> – best for PANO motion<\/span><\/p>\n

Night<\/span> – best for color and crowds<\/span><\/p>\n

So why do it if I already knew the outcome?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

BECAUSE IT WAS FUN! (Yeah – I still sort of remember what that is)<\/span><\/p>\n
