Tribute to Steve McQueen chasing bad guy up this building and car

plunged 15 floors into Chicago River below. That was his last

movie, "Hunter." Feedback is welcome.

Very well exposed shot with lovely colour tones. Esp love the twinkling starry moonlight hanging in the sky.

You are the avowed master of the night and master of multiple imaging for a single finished master. I wondered how you could have used the same exposure for all of the individual images used in combination for this piece? Or do I misunderstand your tech details? The other question I had is how do you get a color temperature calibration for this tungsten based light source? Anyway, it's no wonder we all love your imaging with results like these. My Uncle used to live in one of the 'Marina Towers' you are shooting from, so this is really kind of an interesting return to nostalgia with a modern color twist for me. Excellent work as always.

Wonderful Wilson, I'm so gealous ;) I have almost the same camera (mine is A610) but I never could get such great results. I saw that you did three exposures, blendind them toghether...well, I'm very curious to know the technique. I supose I should have some PS skills. I will be greatful is you can share some. I'll keep an eye on your work. ;) Excellent work! Kind regards!

Yes, this would be in the parking levels at Marina Towers. When this building was under construction in the 60's they had to hault work for a month because of the river rats that were the size of dogs. Great photo.

Wilson you are great! I really appreciate your effort and kindness to explain the technique. I hope I'll barely get close to your results. My best regards!

Impressive merge of the 3 shots, and explanation. The last line "talks" !The blue color and form is exquisite.

More wizardry from you to produce such a superb result. I've got CS2 but haven't yet tried the HDR, although I'm aware of it. This image inspires me to try it.

Wilson- thanks for showing us how you accomplished this. May I ask, if you had shot the middle image in RAW, then adjusted that image to create 2 similar exposures like the 2 sec & 13 sec, would it have resulted in the same effect when combining all 3? Just a thought.

 

The color & composition is wonderful. Makes me feel like I'm in another world. So many things to see! :)

Wilson, another masterpiece and a brilliant composition and use of color. The arc on the left is balanced by the tall building on the right, and all the elements of the image serve to frame the bright moon in the center. You should be named Photo.net's Master of the Multiple Exposure Merger.
