Hi George,I have a similar photo to this (go to my gallery by clicking on my name and you can't miss which one i'm talking about).
You may want to try my idea (which I haven't tried yet) of zooming the lens while its being exposed. If I get around to doing it I'll upload it. #6411

Hi, Romen! Thanks for the feedback -- I've also thought about zooming during exposure, but have yet to try it (this shot was taken with a hand-held Canon Powershot G2, which doesn't let you zoom while shooting). Would love to see whatever you get on this.I found that another interesting effect is to set up about 10-15 feet from an open subway door, and then expose for a 1/2 to one second -- the movement of people is almost ghostly.
Thanks! #9308

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
