Fairground whirls:
Santiago de Compostela holds a yearly fair, famous
for its pulpo a la
feria, octopus cooked in the fairground style. The
tangled arms of the
octopus are here replaced with the whirling neon
lights of the rides.
A three exposure high dynamic range picture here
captures the speed,
excitment and intensity of the fair, set in the
historic Alameda park.

The rhyming circle that is the fairground's high point as a position in the composition. Here it is, a swirling mass of digital lines, deriving from light fixations. The background connected by the whirl of the fairground attraction.
Photographically speaking the moulding of structure, light and perspective, foliage is confronting all the rules in devellopping film. We are asked to marvel at the impossible in photography. J. Shock handles the issues with ease.
