My Home Town - 9

This is the centre of the main road through the middle of town - you can see the east-west pedestrian traffic lights stranded in the midst of the fair. There is just so much human traffic and noise going on here - contained by the buildings, that it can be overwhelming - it's a real takeover if you live or work here - for me this picture - wall to wall framing - conveys this - there is little that stands still, overloaded senses, constant movement, too much to take in.

In some photos of the fair I deliberately look for quieter moments - usually on the edge but also sometimes in the midst of the action.

p.s. you may notice that the background ride is at it's maximum height so the business end is not visible in the picture.
