Whilst I like the concept enormously Christoph, each time I look at the image I am drawn to the pedestrian's feet, which seem to me to be airborne. Not sure if he needed to be gravitated downwards or scaled down or something. Just my thoughts .

I didn't move the original figure at all.  However, by blurring the ground I must made it look like he is airborne.  I'll see if I can change this.

I keep coming back as I can't decide if I like it or not!!!  Cheesy. Like the concept but find the floating effect a bit disconcerting as well!

Bingo! Heaps better ... now I'd concentrate on the shadowy replica.Move him down to road level and voila. much more realistic.  Great work

What do you think yourself Christoph?

Personally I think because I've seen this image evolve, that it pleases my eyes most but in saying that, we don't always have the benefit of being able to achieve the goal.

Great image

Yes, I like it better this way too.  And, thanks Jenn for keeping at it. 

I guess I am a big picture man.  It happens too often that I don't notice the detail that could make all the difference.  I need to be more careful.  Joining this challenge has helped a lot. 

Thanks very much, everybody.  Your comments have been great and good fun.  They made me more careful when selecting what to record and how to process.  And I can still learn a lot.

Practice makes perfect!  Well, maybe not perfect but it does improve your results.  Thanks again!
