More blending

When Karen and I were in Chicago, we took these pictures at Grant Park. I intended the kind of blending you see here when we took them. It’s not exactly what I had hoped for. I sort of thought the people might become completely invisible. Too many people, too much of the time, here for that. I do hold out for the idea to work (to some degree) better when the moving objects are more sparse.

Nonetheless:

Thirty two frames blended. (I guess the people are disappearing. Well, the ones with a pulse anyway.)

Things are progressing. I need to start working on a movie using this technique.
