Extremely well done.

sorry but shots like this are oh, so boring.... even the "simpler" shot of the racing firetruck was cooler.... maybe if there were people in here, it would add some drama, otherwise, it looks like an advert for the mal....

How did you get a shot in this place with no people around?

really nice, except i really wanna c how it looks like in one view, without scrolling up&down.

wow...

Wow - absolutely gorgeous! I love the motion of the escalator. If it wasn't bad enough that I'm considering spending a ton of $ for a new lens and speedlite, now I have to consider this realviz software.

I'm liking these stiched panoramas.

Awesome stuff as always.

Nice shot as usual. How did you manage not to get a single person in the shot?

Great panorama. The bottom part with the escalator is the part that I like most because of the movement captured.
Where are all the people? Strange.

Easy to get lost in the lines. Nice work.

Wow! Love the blur.

Hi!

Great photo! I like the motion blur of the escalator.

In your description you mention Realviz as "a complicated yet powerful software". Have you heard of The Panoramafactory (www.panoramafactory.com). I think that's "an easy yet powerful software". You should try it!

Greetings from an admirerer of your work,

JAV

love the slow shutter effect for the escalator. Looks like it's going way too fast to get on lol. Awesome site! I check out the newest photo everyday while getting ready for work. Keep it up

I would never know it was stiched together had you not told me! This is great -- The escalator really adds a lot of height to the image! Almost makes me dizzy!

Like the effect of 1sec exposure on the escalator.

so symmetric, good. too dim colors by me

Great shot - the movement of the escalator is great. I love the height on many or your shots.

Very cool.

this is good but i am waiting for more gritty street shots, more candid people shots from you. that is what won me over to your photoblog in the first place.

I like your photos and I think the ones that offer an extremely long page view which require the viewer to scroll down might have a link to a smaller image that could be viewed on one page. I like to scroll down the photo as that gives a great feeling of the size which you are trying to capture. However I still think a link to a smaller photo at the bottom of the page would be great and give the viewer an interaction with your photos.

whoa! this one blows my mind! the whole vertical panorama is one thing, but what really got my attention was the geometry and motion of the escalator. very nice!

Sam, You rock!
I was there just before christmas and I didn't have a camera and i loved how the lights looked.

Very cool image. I really like the way you've used the escalator as a frame for the lower portion of the image. One question though...where are all the people? The place seems so unnaturally empty.

Nice shot! I love BCE Place. For the record, it is not a mall, it is more like a lobby/public space at the base of some office towers which is why if you go on a Sunday it can be very quiet. Also the Hockey Hall of Fame is located way at the far end.

Absolutely stunning.
I think you should give Calatrava a shout.

Always impressed,
canbui.

That is startling, Sam. The way the escalator leads into it is marvelous. Makes a quite strange overall effect. You've done a masterful stitching job. I can't see a single distorted line. You do well at getting matching images even when you don't use a tripod it seems. You seem a very patient graphic artist.

While this one is undoubtedly an easier stitch then the eaton's center one a couple days ago, I think this one was better done. The emptiness highlights the line down along the building (and the middle of this picture) perfectly.

Wow! I just discoverd this site today and I'm amazed by the eye-catching photos. I went around Toronto myself and take pictures but nothing compared to this. I just started photography at school. This inspires me to take better photographs. Keep up the awesome work!

Very nice.

Amazing!

Wow!!!!

Hey...
This is really cooooooool. i never knew you could stich photoes!!! the only thing ive ever stiched were my torn pants.
It was great.
:)

The stitching is spot on, the symmetry is great. Really like the composition. Good work!

I love it. What a beautiful building, and what a beautiful capture of that beauty.

Visually stunning. I never get tired of looking at your photos. I am in total awe!

for once i wondered - what kinda escalator is that.. but the exposure time then explained me.. really well shot n stitched :)

diggin' your wide-pan series, Sam.

Why do I always see you doing something like f6.3? Your lens will present better quality at something like 11 or 16 and if you have a tripod it makes sense...

i thought it was an ultra wide angle lense for a second, thats how good the stitching is!! super shot.

great image! I like in particular the choice of including the stairs. Ever heard of Autostitch? It's free and easy. I have some panoramas taken with it on my photoblog.

Nevermind the stitching, what the long exposure did for the escalator is fabulous. I'm used to seeing waterfalls and such in nature photography with the long exposure for the blur of notion, but the empty escalator is just great.

Superb, again!

Damn, this is really cool. Well done!

Awesome picture Sam. I don't think anybody can stitch the panoramic photos like you do, no matter how easy the program is to work with.
What surprises me the most about this picture is that why they should run the escelator at that time of the night. Funny when you think about it, isn't it?

wow, it looks so symmetrical.

Wow! I think this is great!

The motion blur of the escalator really makes this shot for me. It was worth the long scroll down

Simply wow image !
The perspective is impressive, the lines and the light are very effective. well done !

Stitching or not, the angle, movement and lines are outstanding. Beautiful depth. I've used Realviz Stitcher here at work for interiors of the International Space Station nodes and it truly is an outstanding program. Well done.

I like it 'oversized' like this, because as I scroll down and the image is revealed, the escalator movement surprises me. Cool.

Cool shot. You really capture the height here.

i can't believe you didn't won photo friday noteworthy - i've voted for you. the photo is perfect, i love it!
