Summer at the Fair, oil study on 8x10 panel

My first plein air painting contest.  Painted for about 5 hours under duress, lol!  I managed to get the basic shapes, but it's only a study, as it's far from finished.  I like the color and the background.  Not crazy about the lack of detail.  Overall, a good learning experience.  Please disregard the honorable mention.  Everyone who entered got a ribbon--I'd have preferred not to receive anything, as it's meaningless.  Right?
