This was the Nespresso store at Munich.
I never saw one before...
I thought they only exist in their comercial spots...
But Clooney was away this evening ;-)

I loved the shape of the escalator with the lights underneath...
...but there was no chance to get a picture without people in it.
so i decided to photoshop them out.
So please have a look the before/after comparison!
i hope you like the outcome...

NEW! watch the making of video NEW!

holding my music globe...

this is a copositing:
1st i've stiched a panorama of our rehearsal room out of 3 Fisheye pictures
(taken with my new shaved Samyang 8mm Fisheye)
2nd i've made a globe out of the panorama and
3rd i've combined it with the hand picture.
Some retouch, some layers, some dodge & burn...

Total editing time aprox. 5 hours ;-)

i hope you like it!

Thanks to all of you, for making this shot #12
