did u take a couple shots rapid fire or just happen to have great reflexes

Great! He's echoed by the woman accross the street and all! I like this a lot.

Now this one is worth waiting for... great catch!

Ah, my question has just been asked . . but, whatever the answer, this is a striking shot. I like the contrast of the ‘action’ with the emptiness of the street.

Great capture this - very cleverly executed

Good title!
Nice perspective!
Vanishing point is interesting,the head of "passing king" just on the horizon line.
Unbelievable!

comedy! and the persective is good, and the vertical line of the curb through the mailbox thingy through the building. nice shot that.

good timing, capturing his step

Now that's a long step! Is that ice? I like the light shining on the building back there. The angle of the light is in line with the man's left leg.

Your version of Place de l'Europe? I like it!

love that stretched out step! so common to see in t.o.

The guy makes the shot.

Reminiscent of a Cartier Bresson photo, if memory serves me well.

Hugh

Fantastic catch, he has a long stride indeed!!

Very cool moment you captured! The photo is, as always, very clean and sharp.

I've got to ask.
Your images are always so sharp.
I assume you are shooting in RAW and sharpening after the fact....
Are you using Photoshop sharpeners to do it for you? (And if so which ones - smart sharpen, unsharp mask... and what are your typical settings).
Or are you using a plugin for sharpening (or a different program all together)?

wow!!

The only interest I find in this image is the demonstration of the lens capacity to keep the image square and no distortion. That's amazing.

Otherwise it's boring.

You really do have this disgustingly wonderful knack for combining seemingly random elements into a great composition. I learn so much just from studying your work!

A modern version of Henri Cartier-Bresson's photograph perhaps?

Hi Sam, I work just south of that Shopper's on the corner. I HAVE NEVER SEEN KING ST THAT DESERTED!! It looks like a disaster warning has been issued. Good one!

What amazes me the most is how some people read way too much into some of your shots. Unless of course you did plan all those strange little details?

Awsome timing! Were you waiting there for him to get to the end of the street? You must have your camera hanging outside of the case at all times to be able to capture these kinds of candid shots.

My attention first went to the poster of "HAIR". I went to see that show by Canstage - it is really interesting... You have to see the play for yourself to understand what I mean.:)

I like perspective, the great architecture of building right in front and the lines of the tram accentuating the depth of the shot. Also the ray of light projecting over the façade. the sky cuould have been better if it weren´t for the weather I suppose.

The man walking here reminds me of the famous shot of Beatles crossing the street. Good job

great capture, i don't suppose you took another straight after this where he slipped into the water!

What strikes me most is how you have let the sky be overexposed without ur faithful polariser lens!

Oh well.. otherwise, i must agree, the photo isnt that interesting... the quality of the image is though

This is so staged. First, you got a permit from the city to shut the block down to all traffic. You then hired a few drivers, pedestrians and this guy, James Portner, the 1988 Olympics triple-jump gold medalist. YOu then had a street sweeeper come through and clean the gutters, bribed some ice to sit in the gutters in the month of May, hired the buildings to sit veeery still and viola. Your photo. How about taking a non-staged, nAtural shot for once?

Not only is this well timed, but the walking man adds perspective and motion. Great tones. This is excellent!

This is nice…
Very much reminded me of one of the Henri_cartier Brerssons’s.
Exquisite job man
