Vienna Giant Ferris Wheel

_DSC6590.ARW.xmp (22.6 KB)

I just came back from Vienna, where I spent New Year’s Eve.
I took this shot of the Giant Ferris Wheel at Prater and edited it to my liking. My only concern is that, once I was up there, I could clearly see that the entire structure is pure yellow, but I can’t get it right without messing up the other colors or without using masks?!

Nice photo - that was fun. Is there any chance the frame appeared yellow because of some of the lights? I’m asking because I really couldn’t get any yellow out of it - but it did seen to reflect colour from various lights.

I just tested the Fuji Film Simulation Velvia from @jssfr on this.
Plus 1 EV exposure in addition.

Wonderful memories of my childhood and youth come flooding back. I can still remember the stories told by my older relatives there, who saw the Ferris wheel with twice as many cabins!

Maybe a base 16 one (if I counted the number of cabs right), lightlover. lol

I love the dark version by @lylejk despite the artifacts around the cable spokes.
So I tried it less dark to reduce them
