"Night Move"

Rained heavily, then stopped. Shot in front of Chicago Federal

Reserve. Your thoughts are welcome.

This is a spectacular shot Wilson.

 

Congratulations!

fantastic shot!!!! WOW

Brilliant. Love all your work particularly your sports pix.

I really think it's about time you were featured in POW. Your work is at least the equal of anything I've seen so far.

I like most the energy that is communicated; it is as if a separate planet - Chicago - is hurtling through a space called Night; that's the emotional tone I absorb without examing detail. Also impressive is the capture angle/ POV and dof....I am amazed that you've accomplished this with what I assume to be a compact p&s, possibly in the same family as the A540 I bought last week for on the fly shooting (I have been so disappointed by the noise, almost any pic worth keeping and shot over iso 100 has to pay a visit to Noise Ninja, and the iso 800 setting is a poor joke.) So I'm quite astonished not just by the lack of noise, but by the dof & the fact that you elected to push this camera to a point few would dare covet.

You mention 2 shots, would I be correct in assuming that focal points differed, hence the amazing depth?

Yes indeed! Astounding!

There is nothing more I can say!

Awesome! I keep coming back to look at this shot. The colors, mood and composition are simply amazing.

Superb!

Excellent! My compliments

i admire your point of view ...

Simply wonderful, Wilson! Your technique is flawless and again a excellent composition! Your results are my dream achievements... My best regards!

Simplemente extraordinaria en todo. Felicidades

Totally original and amazing! BTW: Scrolling down makes for unusual visual experience.

whirlwind of colors! beautiful!!!!!!

Look sparkling clean after the rain. Also looks like the city is moving with speed. Excellent night capture.

You really maximized the energy of the shot by tilting the axis. Terrific work.

lovely pic

good foreground interest, good reflections, good colours, good blur effect,good sharpness, good composition, i am not a lover of tilted shots but this does it well.

very nice work.

You?re a genius Wilson! Keith

yeah... a wizard of the perspective.. now the foreground, color, and the reflection...when the elements are there...superb image Wilson.

Wilson, almost every thing has been written already about this picture, you really captured fresh after rain, happy to see the gift come with God__nicely reflection add more here..., deep in thought, another modernity composed!!! Best regards.

A fantastic capture. It's as though everything is being "reeled in" by the man-hole cover. Great use of image tilt to create a feeling of dizzying instability that works so well here. I love the perspective, which gives a feeling of how daunting a task it must be for a small rodent to cross the street on a busy rainy night.

Very well seen. You gave the scene the orientation it needed in order to become

an interesting photo. Congratulations!

Excellent shot. The composition and colour are very good. I like the desrever size of the near and distant and the low level at an angle. I bet many a photographer would think 'what a pokey wet night, what the hell is there to shoot!' There is a shot anywhere at anytime - you only have to see it.
