Description
Though a lot of technology has changed since I was a young boy, bumper cars have basically stayed the same & are just as much fun. Although I can't really remember for sure, I believe one of the few differences may be that we didn't have safety straps back in my day. This is my grandson Eligh on the bumper car ride on the Santa Cruz boardwalk. He enjoyed it so much that he went back four times...

Lovely and you can see the action.
Well, I know they had safety straps 25 yrs ago ... I like how everything but your subject is blurred.
He is pretending that is your car.
Over here the carnival folk are hell bent on stopping you actually bumping anyone!
I love these things and what a blast great capture.
Fabulous fun memories (miss these at any of the Fair's in our area, here they elected to keep you from bumping into anyone by eliminating the ride altogether)!
Great capture!
Wonderful shot, your processing works very well here!
I haven't seen these in years. Great shot, you really captured the fun and motion of the ride. Haven't visited Santa Cruz in years - looks like it's still as I remember it.
This is an splendid performance by you. I thank for it. 5+!
Nicely caught!!
Four times? I bet you got the grandfather-of-the-year award for that! He looks like he's having a fabulous time. Bet he loves this shot!
nice action shot of something i used to love as a kid
MARVELOUS WORK!
Very cute scene. Great work
Excellent work, who would have thought of HDR on this kind of subject, nice one.
I agree with Ronoir that HDR is not at all expected for a moving subject but you pulled it off well, and clearly from a single shot. The rich vibrancy is quite unexpected. Most of my HDR is also single shot but when I occassionaly do get the multiple exposures it can make a difference. Nicely done, the vibrancy well suits the action.
this is such a fun shot!
Wonderful capture and movement! :)
A lot of souvenirs :))
Thank heavens for safety belts - I don't remember them, when I was going 'round and round' ;) the focus on your grandson is perfect - against the blurry BG! a fine bright and happy capture, Claude BB
Cool work!
Very cool shot! Love the motion blur going on.
