Thank you, Steve. Yes, I can get you a print made if that's what you're interested in. The original is a sharp slide, and enlarges well. Let me know what size you are interested in, and I can get some prices for you.
You can email me at Stephen@usefilm.com
Thanks for all the comments, folks!

great angle on this cityscape...i love how you have it positioned so the roads come to a v at the bottom...for the keystoning of the buildings there is a wonderful and easy technique to fix this in PS...email me if you would like the info

Great to meet you guys this weekend, I had a great time, and learned a few things. Made it to Navy Pier on Sunday but not early enough for a sunrise.

I feel compelled to comment on this image. For one thing, I couldn't have done this without the expert metering of Mark Meyer, who was present in the hotel room when this was shot. We had a get-together of photographers in Chicago to have some fun, and take some photos. Bill Akata provided the 19th floor room view, and Mark scoped the scene with his spot meter. I followed his direction, and bracketed somewhat from what he said. It was taken through a clean window at approximately a 60 degree angle, and this might have acted as a filter of sorts, I'm not sure. Exposure was at 15 sec, f/16. I really can't explain the difference in the length of the light trails, other than the fact that traffic was moving at various rates. The window may have played a role in the exposure. Thanks for the comments, everyone. This is indeed one of my favorites. {:-)

Do you do these from a balloon--or from those twin round tower things? This is one of the most pleasant night/twilight images I have seen--and short of sunsets--they get the most attention.

Having just tried (on a holiday in New York) to get some shots of this nature, I can appreciate how well this has been handled. I particularly like the strong base and the way the road that runs up the right hand side of the image leads my eye to what for me is the centre of interest, namely the lightest building. Was surprised to read that this was a 15 second exposure as some of the traffic is visible. I assume they were stopped at the lights. Very enjoyable.

Stephen, I see this on the "Editor's Choice" again. Let me again say, great shot! You need to do more cityscapes, you have a good eye for all the elements. And yes (harumph) Provia works well here. (hey get up off the floor, that is only one small little admission from Ms. Velvia!! lol)

Could learn something from this image... What I'm interested in... 15 seconds, f16 and no color shifts or overly orange coloration from tungstan lights on daylight film....! Maybe it was the time of day.. Love to know more. The building detail is beatutiful and reflections too.. Were you using a blue filter? Very beautiful shot. Congratulations.

Very Interesting, but can do better tho! ...emage... :)
Seriously that 's a nice shot. What I like is the shape of the river and the angle that you've placed it + the color of the sky compliments the city and water reflections. Nice balance of exposure on thelights in the buildings and no over exposed shots which I find is hard to balance out. Good Job!

This is a great night shot. I myself was taking some pictures standing on both of these bridges a couple of weeks ago. Nothing came out the way I wanted:) This one has everything I like- great perspective, light and the sky came out great. Nicely done, Stephen!

This photograph is beautiful. The exposure is right on, and the composition is perfect. The only way I could imagine improving it, is if you had used a PC or tilt shift lens to minimize the converging lines of the buildings.
