What an interesting scene. Everyone seems to be standing in the crosswalks rather the walking through them. Great catch Mark! Jim Denham recently posted..Trash or Treasure
Mark, the blacks in this image really pop! Any post work to make that happen?

Hi Brandt.
I tried something new this time, and I’m glad you noticed. In Aperture, I used the Contrast brush set to maximum on the four main figures only. I also used the Definition and Sharpness brushes on them, as I have done on other figures and images in this series. But it was the contrast brush that was new and added that noticeable pop, as you called it. I expect you can get similar results in Lightroom or other programs.
