shererphoto@Mirhan Thanks! It was without a tripod too so it took a few tries. This woman was around nearly every major attraction while I was walking through Paris. I thought about offsetting her to the right or left a bit, but I wanted to stick to the idea of making her the center of attention because that is usually the last thing she ever is in modern society.

@sherephoto .... Thanks for the reply. "Ghosting" is the effect that is created by people walking by while the shutter is open. If this was intentional, then you did a very good job and I now understand the purpose of the photo. Well done.

shererphoto@ViewsOfParadise Thanks for the feedback, however that is not ghosting that is people walking past. The image was captured this way intentionally to show how people ignore those people who need help everyday. This photo was selected for the Emaho Exhibition in Singapore and New Dehli.
