Great shot Chris. Ive been trying to capture crowds for a while with absolutely no success but this has inspired me to try a few things. Excellent location and the light and processing are just sublime mate.

At first I thought the lighting was too bright then it gave the image a nice soft feeling a real sunday aternoon feeling. Nice capture and nice perspective.

Wow this is impressive even though the sky is super exposed it really contrasts with the deep shadows of the people. I really like the soft edges around the picture...did you use a filter or was it the environment?? Great take I think. A very nice leading picture.

@Colour blind: Cheers mate! Yeah, I was a bit unsure about the sky too; was trying to get as much light without over-doing it to mix in with the crowd - it was a fine line. The soft edges were done in Photoshop. Great macro by the way!

i saw that exhibit in Lisbon...super impressive. the over exposed sky is spot on.

lighting is perfect - looks almost alien... when I saw your image title I was thinking of this before seeing this was the series name. Very nice shot.

Mr media, you post-production work accentuates the complimentary spectrum which is enhanced by your articulate control of both the aperture and delectable composition. Furthermore the depth of field allows the viewer to concentrate prominently on the subject matter, which in this case seems to exemplify an emotive response; a palette in the realm of a John Brack work... or someshit.
I mean, nice work! Keep it up.

@sim: Haha, thanks Simo.
I wish I had you 'articulateness' - i'm not even sure that's a word...
Helen from Melbourne, Australia
Fantastic light Chris. This is really a terrific photo. Great exhibition wasn't it?
