Oooo, I like this. I especially like it if this is your neighborhood...where you live. I can't figure out why you didn't just stand there for the time-exposure portion of this photo, so I'll just ask. Why did you shoot this this way? Maybe it was a 30-second exposure and you didn't want the image to blur.

Nice shot. High marks.

Hi, Daniel. Didn't recognize you right off the bat, especially given your last entry, lol.

Good grief, it's an incredible, levitating, ghostly spectre!

dennis said 471 days ago:

I'm guilty of not spotting you either Dan. You look an aweful lot like that WTC tourist hoax guy in this photo O_o

Ana said 471 days ago:

is this your city? this is really cool. I like it a lot.

photografica said 471 days ago:

This is really good. But I can find fault with it. I think it would have been even better if the subject was closer and over to the left, as I don't think the subject's positioning helps the composition. Also I personally would have liked a slightly stronger subject density. It's right in the middle there, I think a bit more would have been better. But really good shot nonetheless.

Hey All,
Thanks for making the time to share your reactions to this shot.

King :: Sure is my hood! I snapped this from my building's roof (one of my fav spots to shoot from). Ya, you've got it - I didn't want to stand their the entire 30 second exposure, didn't want the blur. But really, this was a total experiment, so I was just playing around for a few minutes. This was my fav result. Next time, I'll try to stand there the entire time to see what results I can land.

Oh, and I can totally understand not reconizing me, especially if you are using my last shot to base yourself on ;) No worries mate!

dennis :: OMG, had never heard of the WTC hoax tourist guy. Man are those shots ever disturbing, but I can see how I reminded you of that...

Ana :: Yep, my hood! a.k.a. Montreal's "Plateau Mont-Royal"

photografica :: Thanks for your point of view. I've reallly enjoyed your shots of this type, so take your feedback to heart. Cheers!

Any chance that this will get featured?
