 so this is one person, not many people. the color fade was there when i bumped up the contrast, a lovely (i think) surprise. not sure why he changed color like that. exposure was 3 sec.
i got off 4 shots and was kicked out by security.
thanks for the many comments.
i love this pic, and it makes a nice velvet matte print.

nice long exposure, excellent cmp, good flown blacks need work, whites ok, nice light, great lines, texture ok, overall could be a great print

that's really cool, great work, not crazy about selective desat, for my taste all B&W and burn that santa sign side of the photo almost to black to draw the eye back to the people. That would only make it different, not necessarily better. 8

Maybe I don't understand the intent of your image - but this just doesn't have any impact or interest in my opinion.

Abstract or movement indeed, but not real interesting to me.

this is rather poor attempt to make a ghost or whatever you were trying. very uninteresting image.

and thanks for the PM so I quote you "you are a real jackass." yourself..

One of the best titles I've seen in the challenge so far. Nice slow exposure capture!

Wonderful! One of the most creative shots I've seen in the challenge yet, and very nicely presented. I'd rather *not* have the sign there, but other than that.. fantastic.

I really like this. It's different and dynamic.

very cool shot, unique and original idea and very well executed - I'm definitely going to try this!! the selective colour is perfect too - would have been even more perfect without that sign - oh well, great just the same, can't go around moving too much stuff in malls:-)

Very nice transit of motion -- I like the motion blur as well.

I really like the motion blur and the selective desaturation used in this image...perfect title...everything does seem to become a blur during the later months of the year.
