 Finally convinced the management to let me take the camera on the ride - I had to strap it to my body. Great fun, but would love to go back with a wide angle lens...... This was fun

Who the heck needed you to validate this shot? THis is a great capture! I love the emotion on the boy's face. The balance is a bit off, but that's probably due to shooting without being able to frame. Congrats on what was probably a very, very tricky shot. :) 8

This is one of my favourite tricks myself - sneaking cameras on rolercoasters and doing this. Your angle is brilliant though - very difficult too, so I appreciate it!

Can't get enough of them...

You are way braver than I am, not only for bringing your camera on the roller coaster, but for holding it up over your head while you were upside-down. Great timing and amazing that you were able to take such a clear and well composed shot under those circumstances. Really nice job.

Cool! A roller coaster that has seats turned around so you can see the faces of other people in your car. I don't know if I would have the nerve to take my camera out for a shot like this. 8
