This is a wonderful perspective on this to see two rides at once.

I like looking at the open spaces between the rides with the beautiful blue sky and clouds.

Mary K. Robison July 13, 2005

Hi, Donna! Life really IS a roller-coaster ride ~ which explains why I'm writing 24 hours later than I intended!!! LOL!
This is a marvelous composition, especially in the perspective you used --- downright dizzying! A really lovely image, set against that blue sky...and an appropriate metaphor for the day-to-day ups and downs we all experience. Hope today is an "up" day for you! #1590397

Donna Roberts July 14, 2005

It has been an up day since I have read all of the wonderful comments and that fact that you took the time to stop by to say hi is *always* a bonus.
Thanks!
