Hi Gilad,

Hahaha, funny shot! Great DoF and control of the light on the woman passing by. I can't really grasp the light hitting her from the front, when looking at the street itself. Did you post process the light, or was it original?

Greetings! Dennis

Wow! Gilad, your photographic skills are only matched by your post-processing cleverness. An almost centered and profiled approach had everything to look dull, and yet you (I don’t know how) captured such a unique expression from the lady, which even seems agreed upon, and also adjusted the lighting in a very interesting and artistic way (it looks as though it was done in a studio), so as to direct all the attention to what now is a successful expression of the transportation theme. I have to say your post-processing style, very prone to a collage and illustration sort of feeling, really adds a lot of depth and allurement to your ideas. Do tell me and Dennis how you managed the lighting.
Regards,
Victor

I don't think that this amazing photograph is about 'that thing' in there...
I think it's about you Gilad, and your magic hat tricks...
I realize that less and less I see what's in your pictures, and more and more - 'how' is it in your pictures.
