About 60-ft up on a rotating armature over pavement, with slight breeze. Pretty impressive.

Had thought about entering this as my over-exposed photo, but decided to go a different way on that challenge. Will probably regret it.

Excellent title and very intriguing and well presented shot.

Pity the sky is so white and bright. Loses the shape of the wheel a bit.

Okay I love the title (which I usually don't pay too much attention to). I also like the shot good composition and the boarder, especially the red helps highlight the red in his outfit. Well done.

A little overexposed on the background, but the white bg does suit the image well. It almost looks like it was taken in an enourmous studio. :) I normally don't like borders like this, but the touch of red works well with this photo.

I'm lost with this. Hmmm, some advert I've not seen?

This is a cool shot! He looks like he's on top of a hamster wheel!

Lovely capture, well composed. I like the light tones and the action capture. The title is horribly cheesy.

a little bit bright,too bad there was not more contrast in the clouds, but a subject that surely evokes feeling - makes me nervous! title made me chuckle!

Love the stop action. I think that red border hurts it overall though. It distracts the eye outward a bit. :~) 6

I do not understand the title at all, that doesn't help with my "feel" of the shot. The shot is good, if not a little weird
