While we all love to ride roller coasters, looking at them can be just as breathtaking. What are some of your favorite coaster photographs or coasters to photograph?

This one picture of Outlaw Run on RCDB... damn.

I have quite a few that I like, but I'll just post this one for now.

I hate SLCs but this photo of Mind Bender at Darien Lake is my favorite so far.

Coaster pictures are kind of a mixed bag for me...I can acknowledge that a picture looks good and that a ride is photogenic, but no picture has ever really properly captured a coaster for me. No matter how perfect the photo is, nothing compares to actually being there in person. Just hearing the train's roar and the passengers' screams and feeling the atmosphere of the park is more important and impressive than any picture alone can be.

I'm sure many will agree with me, and it wouldn't surprise me if I'm completely preaching to the choir here. I still feel it's worth mentioning though.

That said, I might as well contribute to the topic. I've always been rather fond of this picture of Kumba. It lacks the perfect lighting and reflections of the previous couple photos, but it's probably my favorite picture.

^That picture is awesome! It very much reminds me of the one Heide Park took on Colossos this autumn:
