This, along with all of my Boardwalk shots from this day, were supposed to be night shots. The photos I did get, like this one, were meant only for composition practice. The thing is, the Boardwalk closed at 8 p.m. (it usually closes at 11 in the summer), so I was not able to get the shots I wanted.

The sun was facing the front of the Tsunami ride as it set and the result is the lights of the ride, which were off, were lit by the sun.

What looks to be a bad crop on my part is really done on purpose. The Ferris Wheel has a light directly in front of it which prevents a lot of good angles from being used. Shame on you Boardwalk people for putting a light there and forcing a bad crop on my photo.
