Shibuya at Night

Starbucks

haha, this woman left her face behind

109

What happened to the Samsung ad?

Good observation; cost cutting I suspect...

Awesome observation bud!

$Shibuya at Night by /\ltus.$

5xp HDR rendered shot taken freehand of the main Shibuya crossing as me and the boys make our way to T.G.I Friday's for dinner with a friend and his family (Chizuko was up in Hokkaido solo scoring some of the best powder of the Season!).

Tokyo, Japan.

Good stuff, as always. How the hell do you get HDR shots freehand? Makes no sense to me.

I really like the sense of movement in all the people on the street, it really seems to characterize a busy city. All the street lights and everything are just great as well.

/\ltus says:

Much appreciated y'all!

To get this shot off, I pressed the right side of the camera against a lamp post, picked the view, then moved my face off the camera, then pressed the release, so while it was technically freehand (without a tripod) I did use a stationary object to "anchor" the camera.
