Rushing to work, early morning, Mid-Manhattan.

fantastic shot Pio, the processing is perfect as is the moment....it really jumps of the screen. I would clone out the parts of the other two people in the scene as I think the dynamic of just two passers-by mirrors the bg so much better.

Good one ...

Olli · 5th of January 2008 (Sat)

Great find. Did you have to wait long for the right guys to pass by?

Thanks for the comment all, and I apologize for not replying earlier, I have been swamped with a lot of stuff to do lately. This was taken in Mid Manhattan last October, just moments before I met up with Mark (MDJAK) at the PhotoPlus Expo. Olli, I waited for around 2, 3 minutes in one spot, shot around 5 photos of people passing by and this was the best of the lot. I just wish the dude on the left was blonde!

Roger, I actually have a version where I cloned out the other people, though it isn't finished yet and still stored at PSD format. I'll post it when I have time to finish it.

Again, thanks all for looking and the comments, much appreciated.
