I had this idea for quite a while, but never quite have done it correctly. My ignorance on proper exposure, along with the correct gears and tools to achieve it did not help at all.

Then i had this lightbulb moment after having seen some videos and forum talks about Titarenko's work. The guy's work are awesome.

I guess it's not inspiration that I got from him because I had this vision for a while. It was the knowledge that he shared with his audience, and to me, that i am grateful for. Without it, I would never have known how to expose this correctly.

Very interesting capture, it's like a thick swarm of ghosts, I actually thought there was a train station fire when I saw the thumbnail. Coolness.

Lovely blur, painterly and very interesting. Love the "couple" seemingly oblivious to it all. I think that's where the story is. Great photo.

That's extremely nice.
I wonder if you did this inspired by Titarenko
In any case, impressive.

What an excellent idea.

Wow, this must have been a very long exposure to get the smoke effect. Quite extraordinary rally.

Reminds me of the movie Chronos. If you have not watched it, I would highly recommend to watch. It is a movie shot in 1980's using timelapse technique. The climax shot has this kind of a shot. You have to watch it to really experience it.

Fascinating! Was that all you running around, or are the blurs just regular people going about their business? I wonder why people went both directions on the stairs, but didn't use of the escalators? So many good stories and a wonderful cloudy effect. Well done!

very interesting..I'm going to have to ck out your exposure time on this...it does seem to have a slight tilt to the right IMO...probably the prospective is just scued...

Very interesting shot. Don't know how set to explain it. It's intriguing... I like the effect that was made. Good shot.

The pollution of blurry human motion abounds in such a new and sparkly space. 9

Top 5 of the challenge for me. Really dying to know how you made the passengers turn to "smoky" ghosts.

Voted earlier, coming back to comment.

My first reaction, "Holy smokes - that is some demolition dust being kicked up". But then on closer inspection it is not dust - it's MOTION! This is a really cool long exposure shot. People rushing to their destinations, flowing down the stairs. They seem to burst into dust at the bottom of the escalator in the flurry of their activity. The escalator can be seen as a representation of life and life's journey. The end of the destination at the bottom of the escalator is where it comes to an end and where all life returns to dust/ash.
