This is a Rollercoaster from an amusement park during my childhood that has been abandoned for at least 20 years or more. It has stood up through a few hurricanes. It will soon be torn down for condos. I find it a shame.

Nice images, although all three are a bit too similar for my tastes.

Great set - Love the subject - Where is this? Great location. Just wish the black and white had some contrast and better blacks - Just looks a little overall grey

The images are very nice, but there isn't a whole lot going on in a literal sense. Great use of black and white. It adds to the dilapidated look of the track. This looks like it'd be a difficult shot to get. Either you are a brave person and paid for a ride on an old rollercoaster, or you climbed onto it somehow. Either way, kudos to you for that.

Nicely done, great idea. Roller coasters are my favorite ride at the parks. What a shame it's abandoned. I like the B&W....good choice.
