MWT - Vienna's Prater

Some views from Vienna's historic amusement park, the Prater.

I love the early evening hours in the Prater very much,
when the first lights begin to shine
against a soft blue sky.



On the merry-go -round and the roller coaster you are really close to the sky!
Did you enlarge the second picture?

    I love going to theme parks not for the ride (am scared of them) but for the photo op it gives. Have a great week.

    Beautiful photos Maria, love the Big Dipper and Merry-go-round. I also enjoyed the posts I had missed out on. Nice place to hone your photographic skills too.
