so this is one person, not many people. the color fade was there when i bumped up the contrast, a lovely (i think) surprise. not sure why he changed color like that. exposure was 3 sec.
i got off 4 shots and was kicked out by security.
thanks for the many comments.
i love this pic, and it makes a nice velvet matte print.

that's really cool, great work, not crazy about selective desat, for my taste all B&W and burn that santa sign side of the photo almost to black to draw the eye back to the people. That would only make it different, not necessarily better. 8
Wonderful! One of the most creative shots I've seen in the challenge yet, and very nicely presented. I'd rather *not* have the sign there, but other than that.. fantastic.
very cool shot, unique and original idea and very well executed - I'm definitely going to try this!! the selective colour is perfect too - would have been even more perfect without that sign - oh well, great just the same, can't go around moving too much stuff in malls:-)
I really like the motion blur and the selective desaturation used in this image...perfect title...everything does seem to become a blur during the later months of the year.
