good experiment with exposure and motion linda :)
if you want to get more "ghostly" movements from the subjects, try exposing the lens to light using the lens cap or a blackcard, this will allow you to get able 2 seconds of exposure for movements.

if u leave the lens expose for 2 seconds straight, you won't be able to see the starting trail...by manually covering the lens then exposing it for able 1/2 a second each time, you should be able to capture a nice trail of ghostly images of people's feet :)

I like this, quite keen on this genre of images..very good composition, with the sharp and the wispy things going on is quite an exciting picture...captures the hustle and bustle so well....TFS

Hy Linda
Welcome back, You must go back to the City again without kids and of course the camera. What a magical City. Like the way you dealt with the ghosts - don't really have a choice - Ahhhhh the colors of the city.

A good experiment Linda, something my point and shoot wouldn't manage. Good colour, well composed and the images most effective. TFS,
David
