love the shots, but please don't post large photos directly in the forums. :) thanks!

I think you should be a little more selective with the photo's you want to show :)

hey : (

just my opinion, no need to get angry.

I just think a selection of 4 or 5 would make a much stronger impression :)

I enjoyed them all and would love to see more if you have them. Sounds like a place I'd love to see before the $500,000 dollar apartments go up. ;-)

Meh I have approx 75 pics but I really do not have the time to host them now.
Perhaps in January : )

Thanks everyone for your comments.
I appreciate them.
Both Negative ones and Positive ones

GMACK24 you have some very nice pictures. I looked at the slide show after viewing some manually. Great composition on all the photographs and I like your use of B&W on some and color on others. The abandoned park has an eerie feel to it and the B&W added to the mood. Would like to see more of the park if possible. Looks like a great place for a photo shoot. Take pictures of everything you can find that once was part of the park. A few looked like they were over sharpened but that could of been from the viewer. Great collection.

Thanks I do have more photos but just dont have the time to host them right now. Perhaps in January : )

Yeah it is freaky to think that back in the day there were kids running around parents ripping their hair out of their heads. Kids playing, laughing, crying, Let me off this coaster! ! ! LOL

Too bad vandals had to burn 85 percent of the thing to the ground.

And now it will be torn down for Condo's in the spring.

Sad...

I am just happy I was able to go and take photos of it before it was torn down : ^ )
