Carousel at Night
(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it.)
On Tuesday evening while we were at the beach, we stopped by Barefoot Landing in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, after dinner. Barefoot Landing is a shopping-restaurant-entertainment complex. Most of the shops were closed, which was fine since we stopped by to see the lights. Walking around the complex we found this brightly-lit deserted carousel, and I couldn't resist taking a picture.

The lighting makes it looking like a crown.
How very pretty the carousel is George. Thanks for sharing with us. Have a great day.
All those lights are wonderful in this dark world of ours! Have a great New Year's Eve!
Beautiful! This looks like an elaborate carousel.

wish i could see that carosel, i always loved them. the last time i rode on one was at age 25 with my two boys. at age 15 and 16 i rode them anyway then had to wait for my boys for an excuse to ride again.
How could you resist riding on it? We have one in downtown Chattanooga that is operational most of the year. Your picture is gorgeous.
Well, I thought my post had pretty lights today, but you've outdone me! I had to click on this one and see all the pretty detail.
Neat George, is it run by electric or steam?
everytime i see this, i feel like a kid again, the lights, sound of laughter and ambient.
The lights are lovely, George. To me, white lights seem so elegant.
Oh I LOVE carousels! This is a beauty...I can almost hear the calliope!

I love carousels!!! This is a beautiful capture.
Great night lights. A delight for the eyes.
It's kind of unusual to see a carousel and nobody is around. Great capture!! Thanks for the visit and Happy New Year!!

I just love carousels...thanks for the eye candy!!!
I love carousels! There's one in Wildwood, NJ that's been there forever. It's one of the antique, large ones. How that brings back memories!
Wonderful light, sir! Bravo! And I like carousels very much!
Best wishes for you and yours to 2011!
Hugs.
Good on you. It is so pretty!!
Have a Wonderful New Year.

I would like to some day visit this place. I have heard so much about it. Based on the lovely sights you share, it has to be a nice place to visit.
Great night shot George!
Did you go for a ride?
In December, the North East Monsoon blows and bring in a lot of rain.
The first tree we had was a fake tree and didn't have many leaves and branches. Dad was a civil servant and didn't have a lot of money. He bought about six baubles and we were the only house in the neighborhood with a tree.
It was about 4 pm when the wind blew, and mum rushed to close the window and at the same time telling us to do it. We rushed to the lounge just in time to see the tree fall. Some of the baubles broke into smithereens some were less broken. Mum was in tears. We tried to savage them, but mum said no, we were too proud to use broken baubles.
When I went to Canada years later, my Canadian friend strung popcorn to hang on the tree. I came home and told Mum we could do this cheaply. Mum said it won't work. In Borneo, the ants would come.
the carousel does look beautifully lit up at night.
