Description

New York City is the city that never sleeps, and even in the middle of the night Time Square is full of life.
An abstract picture of a NYC taxi going by the iconic American LED flag on Times Square with lots of light streaks and motion blur.

I wanted to get a picture of the iconic Stars and Stripes flag in the middle of Times Square with a taxi going by. So i positioned myself across the street and waited for a moment with a cab and without any distracting people getting in the way. I finally got the shot and once i got home i decided to get quite creative with it in the post processing, to really convey that feeling of the busy New York City night.

Picture taken in New York City, USA using a Canon EOS 600D.
Edited in Lightroom and Photoshop for various enhancements and effects.
