Very well done.  It shows some very creative effects.  I like the way it 
shows the difference in motion and stillness of the various subjects.  I 
know almost nothing about photoshop so I have no idea whether they are 
just layered, as in a standard multiple exposure, stitched, like in HDR 
or panoramas or what.  If this style became cliche' I would tire of it 
quickly, but like a brash buxom young lass, I could certainly enjoy it 
now and then.




That's a direct link to the image on Pinterest, so
non-Pinterest-members should be able to view it (the standard link is
http://www.pinterest.com/pin/322570392035559536/).
Out of curiosity after last week's image and reported issues I made an
inquiry to Pinterest about non-members having difficulty browsing the
site. To my amazement they admitted that there's no way for someone to
just browse through Pinterest without first signing up to join! The
representative a communicated with did agree that this was an
astonishing limitation for anyone hoping to use Pinterest to promote
business or their work, so perhaps they'll fix this issue in the
future.

Yes, but blocking JavaScript renders you unable to navigate the rest
of Pinterest: You can view the individual page I sent the link for but
you can't browse around.




You're the one who originally recommended NoScript. What do you use now?

Not at all. I waited several seconds between each shot. London traffic

It captures well the bustle of Oxford Circus (world capital of pickpocketing), 
but the hdr is too heavy-handed for my taste, particularly on the buildings and 
the paving stones.

I occasionally try to browse things on pinterest when google has sent me there, 
but it's a waste of time trying. What happened to the idea of the open 
internet? Organisations like pinterest can fuck off as far as I'm concerned.

Blocking Javascript would break most of the web these days. Javascript
is foundation technology, along with HTML and CSS. You might as well
tape four of your fingers on each hand together.

Really conveys a sense of motion and a busy downtown street corner.

I find the colour noise jarring where it appears inconsistently, like
on the girl's face and parts of the building walls, upper-right.

Pinterest is trying hard to make themselves relevant to business and
retailers, but their own architecture works against them. I use
Pinterest purely for my own purposes, as a handy mood board and place
to manage inspirational images, but I've unintentionally accumulated a
few followers and viewers there.
