I agree -- eerie, but very nicely executed. I especially like the muted tones coupled with the sense of movement. Helen

Good one Mike. This shot really does have an eerie quality to it. And I like the decision to go B&W. A colour shot would not have worked as well.

All the best

Thanks, Miguel & Deb. Miguel, I converted to B&W in PS using the channel mixer by setting to monochrome and adjusting the RGB sliders. Then, to create a little more mood/contrast here, I selected the "black point" in "levels" & applied it to various areas where dark grey was transitioning to black. I chose the point I liked best. That's it. MFC

Wow, MFC! Scary stuff here, not to mention a darn good capture. I really like the B&W conversion for this image. Your timing is perfect, as shown by the position of the people in the spotlight.---Deb

Beautiful image Mike! This is an image that works extremely well with the contrast between the light and the dark areas following a repetitive pattern and the people walking. Very good conversion to B&W, I love the density of the black ... how did you convert the image to B&W?
