 Not quite the shot I was after... I wanted more people in it, but I didn't have the patience! I reduced the saturation on yellow, increased darkness on red, adjusted levels and curves, cropped and tidied up with Neatimage.

So close to a 'great' shot! The long exposure blur is delicious here against the formal architectural rigour. The sign (Mgmt. Office) adds a (needed?) topical reference. Did you use a tripod?

your title for this submission is interesting, but your subject chosen isn't exactly suitable. I like the corridor (hallway) you chosed, but try getting people dressed in their working clothes and looking busy, that should help make the meaning appear more...well...convincing

Very cool image. Good use of lighting, reflections, and people in motion. The image looks very nice and the quality is great. Good job.

Nice use of blur to create a surreal atmosphere.

I thought of doing this but i`m a bit shy with my camera. A few more people would have helped the shot but at least you went and did it, unlike me. 8

I like the dreamy feel to this image. It really works! And the "guy in the red coat" is no "woman in the red dress," but he does stand out very well.

Nice idea, bit more original than most.
