This week, Tina invites us to Take a Break from our every-day routine for the Lens-Artists Photo Challenge and what better way to forget all your cares than a visit to the funfair. These images were captured at the annual 4th of July carnival held at Melas Park in Mount Prospect, Illinois.

Excellent choice! Love the shot of just the one set of seats in midair. Dizzy just thinking about it!
Thanks, Tina! Not a ride I would go on. I prefer something a little closer to the ground.
Nightmare! I prefer a merry go round with good solid horses at ground level.
I’m with you on this one, Tom! But I do enjoy watching other people enjoying these rides.
Hi, Sue. This is a perfect break in the summer for many kids–of all ages. Great action shots.
Thanks, Patti!
A great summer, fun ride for kids and youngsters. 🙂
Thanks, Amy! We did have a fun evening.
Ha ha! Excellent! I love rides.
Thanks, John! These were a little too wild for me but I thought they made a good picture. I prefer the carousel.
