...equus ex machina



I have walked by this carousel many times. On a recent November evening, it still lay in the shadows of the Smithsonian Castle, a herd of suspenseful restraint.




I don't know why, but I enjoy carousels out of context...without music, and without riders, off-season.


Standing next to them, you can almost hear the motionless gallop.
