Description A modern city without cars. Its a nice idea.

This shot was taken during the Sydney Harbour bridge 75th Anniversary bridge walk.

This consist of 4 shots stitched together in Photoshop. The grading was done to give an olden time feel. I also removed every car in the shot, though there weren't to many cars as alot of roads were closed for the day. In all there was about 100 or so cars in shot.

The full size print has a much bigger impact, but for copy right reason i don't want to submit it full size.
The original size is 6700x1900
here is a crop of it full size [link]

Very nice one. Definitely a for me, as it's making me like urban shots again

I think I understand why you're not willing to share the full-scale picture here, but then it's a shame you're not selling it as a print.

Cheers !

Thanks heaps. im glad you like it

coz its a rare shot i wanted to keep it exclusive. Its not often you see a big city without cars and where ppls feet are the main form of transportation. I think it show a nice idea where a big city can have little or no pollution if ppl only walked or used public transport.

So you can imagine by looking at the shot seeing a congestion of ppl walking to work instead of a congestion of cars.

Beautiful as always - you have a knack for taking a picture and defining it as yours (if that makes sense? Gah, brain hurts *pouts*)

I love the olden time feel - you've done a very good job in editing this piece

p.s. shmuv
