Circus Arena has now left the city, so this is my last shot of Circus Arena. I really wanted to capture the ARENA sign. The rain was slowly falling and the wind blowing, so it was a cold evening outside Circus Arena. Shot it a couple of times because the rain kept hitting my lens and also i had to stand a couple of meters out on the road.
So between the red lights i had the opportunity to shoot some brackets. Its a busy road, so i wore my green safety west.

moody atmosphere - the rain drops help :) I also find there is something representative in a circus. So many films - did you ever see Fellini's "La strada" But I digress and reveal my age. wonderful shot.
Very nice. the flare adds to the overall feel of the shot.
@daina: If i answer 'yes', then i reveal my age... but yes i have seen it. Its the one with Anthony Quinn right ?
yes, yes, yes - the one with Quinn and Masina (Fellini's wife) As you can tell I am a fan. So glad you knew what I was talking about!!
Nicely done. The lens flares and shiny circus tent give this shot a mysterious feel.
Circus have always an interesting and mysterious mood, and this shot really captured that feeling with new perspectives
Really like the lighting and night time shot here. Great composition and you captured the mood and atmosphere here perfectly.
Very nice, the flares really adds to the atmosfere! And did you go see the show!!?
Good job with the lights. Like the sign.
Great lighting.
has a lovely vintage feel to it. agree with Oswegan - the flare really adds to it.
I really like it. It has and old time feel to it.
a childhood dream!
I like how you've incorporated the lens flare in the composition. nice capture.
Lovely lights! You made it once again! The reflections on the tent make it look realistic!
