Thanks, Melb. Around her we call them "bumper cars". Interesting how your take is on getting away, whereas ours is on the attack! LOL! ~ Lonnit

I really like the feel of this Lonnit, great expressions and interpretation of the theme.

Your processing is quite dramatic with the bright backlight and that sepia toning and works well with this image.

Those 'Dodgem cars' bring back fond youthful memories. This one looks very 'space age' and almost alive with those eyes and mouth. ~ Regards Melbob

Thanks, Naj. I was particularly thrilled with this image. Something about it I just loved. I was very happy with the processing, which seemed to capture a timeless feel. I'm glad you like it. :) ~ Lonnit

This is classic Lonnit, fabulous expressions, strong processing style and you even managed to fit in a steering wheel too! Excellent entry. Regards, Najinsky
