No stretch of the imagination



Imaginatively called the Bournemouth Wheel (I wonder who came up with that one), this Ferris wheel replaces the Bournemouth Eye; a tethered gas-filled balloon that had once been situated in the town's Pleasure Gardens. Clearly, a bit more thought went into naming the balloon, but whoever named what the wheel is far more photogenic.

However, I wasn't carrying anything wide enough to do it justice this afternoon, so a return visit with a (much) wider lens will be in order the next time the sky is right.


24-70mm f/2.8 AF-S Nikkor. 1/250 second at f/8. Matrix metering. Polarising filter. ISO 160
