Back to comment. Lots to like here, great idea, great spinning top and circles of light. It meets the challenge. On the other hand, I find it rather busy with the fence and tree cutting me off from what is most interesting rather than adding to the image. Also, a small but "nagging" issue for me, I find the girl's white sandals distracting because my eye keeps getting drawn back there. On further reflection.. this nicely captures a child's wonder with the spinning carousel, and the fence acts to provide the feeling of a child being on "the outside" looking "in" at where all the fun is going on. Perhaps a title to reflect that would have helped me appreciate the photo more immediately but I don't know, it's just a thought. I'm glad I took to time to explore it further.
If only you'd come in closer to the carousel it would have been a cooler effect. The foreground fence, tree, & sidewalk take away a lot from the photo. Clearly meets the challenge.
Obvious use of a tripod, or any other long-term stabilization tool (1-10 *is not the score of the shot though*): 10
Perfect light trails and sharp stationary objects show a tripod had to be used.
