A legendary lens with a well deserved reputation can still be had for pennies on the dollar compared to modern offerings. These were taken with an FD mount copy that goes to 1:1. A fantastic lens for macro i thought to try some less obvious targets. The carousel is a relatively local tourist attraction that citizens of the community have invested 165000 hours of volunteer labor to create a modern take on the carousels of yesteryear. The mechanism is a vintage Dentzel that was originally in Pennsylvania (now in Albany Oregon) .they have it completely working inside a gorgeous new brick and laminated beam structure on the waterfront of the Willamette river in their downtown. The characters are all hand carved from basswood and hand painted. Photos to follow as my tablet is running out of juice.I _________________ photos are moments frozen in time |

Wow, that's sharp and pop!
A very good choice of light making a dramatic play of bright spots and shadows. Congrats for the series! |

Oh yes. Vintage mechanical autoplay device. They tour guied told us the name but I have already forgotten it. They are in the process of making it a carousel museum. They have several vintage characters on display in the basement where they are carving new characters. Sadly I didn't get photos of the vintage characters (Next time!)
These were with the Sony AF 70-400 G via LE-A4 adapter. The lens was set to manual focus though. I had white balacnce set wrong on first image and am too lazy to fix it for now.

It might be. I am not sure. There were lots of colored characters around also. Including several kids in charming princess outfits. So it could be reflection . I dont take pictures of children, though. _________________ photos are moments frozen in time |

Yes, old school. Blocks of basswood glued and pinned together then hand carved by master craftsmen. Each character is chosen by a sponsor. They have 2 artists that create 2 dimensional sketches that the sponsor approves (typically after a few iterations). Then the sketches are converted by the woodcarvers. _________________ photos are moments frozen in time |

Yes, a calliope. With the standard carousel music you have heard 1000 times in movies. That was one of the downsides to spending as much time in there as I did. _________________ photos are moments frozen in time |
