Crescent Moon over the Sky Ride 天際吊車見月牙

【Ontario Yours to Discover】: This is the fourth year I visited Canada National Exhibition (CNE) for photography. On August 28, 2014 I went to this annual event at 7:30pm after queuing for one hour for admission.  I did not have much time for photography of different activities as I had to leave at 10pm, I only focused my photo theme on the Sky Ride.

To me, the visual effect of the moving line of the Sky Ride was stunning. As I have missed the chance of taking photographs from the sky, I therefore took a ride to take the bird view scene of CNE. But I prefer to shoot the crescent moon appearing along the moving Sky Ride in the dusk!

【安省景物  由你發掘】：這是我連續第四年到加拿大國家展覽會拍攝照片。2014年8月28日我要排隊一個多小時才能於晚上7時半進入會場。由於時間有限，並要在晚上10時離開，我便將拍攝主題祇集中在「天際吊車」。對我來説，一列連綿不絶在高空移動的吊車具視覺上的震撼力。由於我過往都錯過了在高空拍照的機會，今次我便坐上吊車，拍攝展覧館的鳥瞰景觀。我也偏愛在黃昏時份將一彎明月拍攝入鏡。
