Times Square Traffic

Perfeição!

Technique/Processing

HDR-like processing in Photoshop using only one exposure (you can notice that some ads are a bit too bright - but i was looking for this overbright atmosphere at night).

It's handheld (And i drank some beers before!) :-)

This photo has notes. Move your mouse over the photo to see them.

To take full advantage of Flickr, you should use a JavaScript-enabled browser and
install the latest version of the Macromedia Flash Player.

Phillipp, this is a great capture. If beer resulted in this, I would start drinking too.

I do not drink, I do not smoke -- I only concentrate in women.
