Stroller
Stroller was shot on the footbridge in Beecroft over the M2 Motorway in Sydney, Australia. Apart from the selective colouring (the yellow is original) and some cropping, the image is basically as is.
Shot using a Canon EOS 10D with EF 70-300mm DO IS zoom lens at 70mm, ISO 100, 2 secs at f4.5

Stroller belongs to the following groups:

Irene Burdell
That is very creepy .
Peter Hill replied
Suppose it is Irene. Didn’t really notice that effect until now.
Robin Webster

Thank you Robin!
Linda Ridpath
hhmmm… dont know why i like this,, it is just so ‘interesting’... great work tho!
Peter Hill replied
thanks Linda!

Cool image!!! I have to agree with Irene a bit though, it’s a little creepy, simply beacause the figure seems a little ghostly…..
Peter Hill replied
Thanks! Yes, not sure why her head didn’t appear!

Peter Hill replied
thanks Fergus
Juilee Pryor
this is great Peter…. like he is entering some great cosmic drama…. well done
Peter Hill replied
thanks Juilee – glad u like this one! :))
Celia Coulter
I don’t find this creepy at all. The timelapse effect on the figure while the environment remains the same around them suggests how impermament and fragile we human beings are.
For me this is a thoughtful and melancholic image. Beautiful
Peter Hill replied
thank you Celia – for the non-scary comment.
anisja
Great in all !
Peter Hill replied
thanks anisja
mimi yoon

I don’t know any guy that carries a yellow umbrella but hey, each to there own. Nice work, photo could be mistaken for a composite, but it’s not, which makes it even more impressive .
Peter Hill replied
thanks champ. Don’t worry – it was a female carrying HER umbrella :) And she can vouch for the single shot. Interestingly, this bridge is as boring as bat poo in the daylight as a subject.
ALittleBitofRnR
love it. i think a lot of boring places by day have so much more character by night, especially that creepy character. the creepiness of night makes something interesting out of what would be otherwise boring .
Peter Hill replied
you got it Richard! just add a bit of drizzle and you’re away
PaulHealey
What a great shot – SC is spot on.
Peter Hill replied
thanks again Paul – glad u like the yellow

LudaNayvelt
love this effect, man without head
Peter Hill replied
thanks Luda
Rosemary Scott
I love this one Peter…. I love the movement & the selective colouring is inspired… well done.
Peter Hill replied
thanks Rosemary. It was all just spur of the moment stuff. Immediately prior to the shot my “model” had been holding her umbrella over my camera. The time delay started, she started walking.
Kristal
beautiful!
Peter Hill replied
thankyou Kristal

Even without the figure and umbrella it’s a splendid image with very good perspective and a full range of tones but the inclusion of the figure adds a pleasing bit of motion blur and of course that selective colouring, an inspired touch, well done Peter,
Regards, Rod.
Peter Hill replied
thanks Rod – that’s a great compliment and feedback!
Dave Hiskey
like this very much….
Peter Hill replied
cool! thanks Dave
Jeff Harris
Great capture. I like the atmosphere in this shot. The subject almost looks superimposed, but I’m sure you shot this with a very long exposure. Nice work!
Peter Hill replied
thanks Jeff! From memory (oops) it was about 3 seconds.
Peter Hill replied
Hi Jeff, I’ve now gone back and sourced the shooting details. It was 2 seconds.
GailD
This is great. What is your exif info here?
Peter Hill replied
thanks Gail. I’ve amended the Description to show the tech stuff.
Cora Wandel
Excellent work, Peter!
Sharon Mau
This is a captiving image filled with intrigue, with a fascinating perspective and mystery. The tonal quality is wonderful. It is most effective in selective colouring with the splash of yellow drawing the eye directly into the grid as a wonderful point of interest using the rule of thirds.
Congratulations on your feature in Dimensions
Sharon Mau
Aloha Peter, what happened, did you remove this from the group and resubmit? I just completed the features for the today. Tomorrow I will add it to the featured archives again. I wish you a sparkling day!
Peter Hill replied
Hello Sharon. No, I didn’t remove this image from the group, so I’m not sure what is going on. but thanks for featuring it!!!
Sharon Mau
That is interesting. Mahalo for submitting it again Peter. Congratulations on your second feature in Dimensions
