[QUOTE="hark, post: 324111, member: 13196"] This ride is called [I][B]Starship 2000[/B][/I]. The people get loaded inside (have never seen the inside so don't know how the people get secured into the ride). Once the ride starts, it spins like a record player. ;) EXIF[COLOR=#000000]:[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]Camera: Nikon D610[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]Lens: Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]Aperture: f/18[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]Shutter Speed: 4 seconds[/COLOR] ISO[COLOR=#000000]: 100[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]Focal Length: 24mm[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]Aperture Priority[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]Tripod Mounted[/COLOR][COLOR=#000000] [/COLOR] [IMG]https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3887/14322289227_9e6e92f9cd_o.jpg[/IMG] [URL="https://flic.kr/p/nPBtBa"]Starship 2000[/URL] by [URL="https://www.flickr.com/people//"]*Hark*[/URL], on Flickr And the one below is called [I][B]Pharaoh's Fury[/B][/I].
