Nessie

The family and I spent the day at Busch Gardens, Williamsburg, and I took this shot crossing the "Rhine river" from Germany to Scotland. The Loch Ness Monster was opened the same year I was born, 1978, and is the last coaster that uses interlocking components in it's construction.

Justin, you need a map!!! Germany doesn't border Scotland!!! :laughing:

That is an awesome shot of that ride. Great lines.

I know Scotland wants to separate, but I didn't know they moved to beside Germany.

Wow, that looks like one nasty ride.

Geography aside, I like the lines leading up to the coaster.

Couldn't care less where it was, but this is an amazing piece of work. Love the leading line bringing the eye into the twisted, yet graceful lines, of the coasters architecture. Beautifully composed JR.

it never fails to amaze me how our neighbours to the south can screw up geography and other things, nature here. I am not a fan of mechanical stuff being placed into nature, just does not belong there. On the other hand, the image is very nicely composed. Love the juxtaposition of the straight leading lines of the bridge to the mishmash of steel of the roller coaster.
