Wednesday Photo: Queenstown Stairs

This was a long exposure on a tripod shooting down a staircase where about ten to fifteen people were climbing up and down. The fifteen second exposure was long enough for most of the people to disappear (since they don't block the light for an appreciable amount of the 15 seconds). There were a few people who didn't move during that time, so they remained visible in the photo. If I recall properly, I was standing at the top of the stairs on Man St. looking down at the intersection of Shotover St., Duke St., and Rees St. in Queenstown, New Zealand.
