    Fantastic 👏. I've wanted to explore this technique for a while now, after one lucky mistake i made. I accidently used slow shutter in low light, capturing a very charismatic lady, smoking and looking a little worse for wear. The image looked so artistically mesmerising with motion blur creating an identical reflection of her mind, as I saw it. Its one of my favourite Street shots.
    Looking forward to your next vid 😀 sounds exciting. 👊📷😎✌👋👋

    I tried to do this exact technique this summer and got a couple of decent shots but overall was dismayed by how hard it was to nail the right exposure time. I remember I took a photo of a fire truck going through an intersection and all that shows up is a red line. Thanks for the excellent video and I'm looking forward to the next one.

    I’ve watched most all your videos. I like your approach to photography. I like the way you challenge yourself by studying other photographers and then shooting in their styles. You do an great job of it. You are an excellent photographer in your own right. Your videos are informative and always entertaining. I usually don’t make comments about most videos, but in your case I had to comment. I am an old timer who made his first photo at the age of 5. The first time I watched an image appear in the developer in the darkroom I was hooked and I still make photographs after 60 years. Thanks.

    Love the pictures. I have been one of those people ,walking in the metro to arrive somewhere. The exposure captures the movement beautifully.
    Just one thing. It is a felony to use cameras and video inside the subway in Mexico. That is why the police won't let you, they were polite with you. I've heard of some mexican photography students that were taken to prison for some days, trying to do this.

    Only movement, could not be colors, as they would take away from the movement. You made the most busy metro station of Mexico City to shine like poetry, both in your images and video. Will tip AOWS about it. Did you follow his journey through Norway this fall?
