Wow, it's been nine days now. Whats going on here? Voters should check back regularly on voting pages to see if their concerns have been adressed. And they shouldn't be afraid to correct mistakes they have made. The above vote is just unfair and unsubstantiated.
428:
Yeah, it's unfortunate he wasn't standing more prominently. He must be a newbie, frequently they stand right on the edge - and no safety belt or even a barrier to keep them in. And agree with your comments about wanting to see more pain.
415:, although the faces of the passengers could be displaying more pain :P I have edited the orginal images summary page, but there needs to be more emphasis on the ride operater standing in the middle of the carriage! -- 334:- I'm biased too. I live in Adelaide but I wish I lived in Sydney or Melbourne... Anyway, it's a good picture, and it illustrates the topic well, but I wish you could see why it's called th Scenic Railway. 170:. Not everyone is smiling. ;-D...just kidding. I actually like this picture, but I agree with Fcb981 in that the wow factor is pretty...meh. I wish the whole framework of the coaster was in the shot. 60:
It's a good action photo of the scenic railway. You can see the wooden structure that holds it up, the brakeman between the two carriages, and the usual variety of reactions from terror to joy.

This is absolutely not true! A knee-jerk oppose, just because some areas appear white. Take a closer look. There are about 128 totally white pixel, the rest are shades of light gray. --
366:- the photo should not have to be viewed at full size to see the details. And the kids in the front just look bored. But I do like the term "scenic railway" over roller coaster.-- 370: 447: 406: 105: 382: 309: 284: 355: 326: 251: 235: 158: 272: 212: 203: 190:
He doesn't look sick as much as he looks like he has some kind of retardation.. his wrists are crossed, his back is arched, and he has a lazy look on his face --
185: 117: 433: 419: 143: 129: 194: 259:. Composition is excellent and while others are right that the scenic railway is missing that wow factor, it is a notable subject and a good depiction of it. 471: 26: 351:
Probably when it was built it was quite scenic. But now it's surrounded by houses, shops etc. There is a bit of a view over the beach, I guess.
461: 466: 17: 113:
Not very big on wow factor or size but really a very nice shot. Beautiful clerity for a picture needing short exposure.-
292:. Excellent composition and a great capture overall. Also, it's something completely different than our existing FPs. 317:
It illustrates the subject fairly well and has good composition - although like Diliff, I have a Melbourne bias...
268: 66: 199:
What are you talking about? "A lazy look" on his face?? Can we please try to minimize nonsense like this?
208:
Come on, you know what I mean. Just commenting; it doesn't make the image worse or anything --
226:. Anyway , the composition is pretty great, and it nicely captures rollercoaster-riding. -- 70: 38: 45: 8: 303: 430: 352: 322: 243:
fantastic composition, the tech faults are not much of a factor in this situation. ~
102: 91: 33: 265: 231: 154: 139: 367: 444: 74: 455: 295: 281: 200: 403: 379: 336: 318: 244: 227: 150: 135: 83: 50: 260: 173: 114: 416: 209: 191: 126: 391: 181: 402:. Quite different to what we usually see here content wise -- 378:
Wrong. Images need to be judged based on their full size --
41:
is the world's oldest continually operating roller coaster.
125:. Great composition but all of the lighting is blown -- 442:
