This is a terrific capture. Thanks for the explanation. It would have driven me crazy to know how you managed this otherwise short of a "set up." By starting off with a Blue Ribbon, where does one go from here? Congrats!
This is wonderful. So many mini images included. The focus is amazing. I'd love to see a giant print so I could study the interactions in all the little groups of spectators.
Wow wow woow :) Im so excited! Thanks to everyone for the comments.
I have to admit that i was lucky to be in the right place at the right time. It was Formula1 event organised by Red Bull just infront of my office windoweses, in the center of town, Vilnius, Lithuania. Yes, its eastern Europe and people were damn curious and creative to see David Kulhard racing so they were climbing on buildings, cars, fences, i even saw 2 guys sitting on toilet cabin just to get a better view.
In this shot people are standing on abandond car parking building. I was just leaving the office and was shocked to see "layers" of people.
You can take a look at more pictures from this event here. Once more - thanks everyone, glad that you enjoyed it. Its such a cool feeling to get a first ribbon especially a blue one :)
i have no idea where this could be - eastern europe perhaps ? - somewhere with few health and safety regs - but somewhere proserous judging by the number of phones,cameras and video cameras - is it an abandoned golf driving range ? - fascinating 10
Now that is a lot of bystanders. I like the framing and stacking here but I may have just gone with two levels, either that or I would like to see more of the top level. It seems tilted a bit but that may just be from shooting at an angle. More of a straight on composition would of worked so much better but that may not of been possible. Overall a pretty nice image.
