I love the still person… was that a friend of yours you asked to stand still or was that person taking a picture themselves and you happened to catch him motionless…. Just absolutely love it!
There are a few more. It was quite a hectic place though so it was hard to get to many. It was great to have the lights combined with the bustling crowd.
Yeah, it juxtaposes something that you can see and that never changes with an array of movement… of course, it’s all a lie. The light is travelling infinitely faster than the people. Mind triiiiiiiick!

Thanks 🙂 I thought a long exposure would capture the movement in the scene!
