After having done a photo shoot, which contrasts with the ideas portrayed through Ernst Haas photos, i decided to also do one in which has similar connotations within the urban areas and really capture the sense of movement and hurry in these areas.

This is the original image which was taken by myself on a rooftop.

I then simply increased the brightness to make it stand out and increased the contrast to create a differentiation between light and dark.

This stage shows the rest of the editing that took place prior to the motion blur which includes an increase in vibrancy and saturation and a slight change in the black and whites.

In this edit i used motion blur only on the biker to create a sense of rush within the biker himself to create a sense of rush within the biker himself. It appears that he is in a rush to get somewhere.

In this edit I used motion blur around the biker and kept him in focus to create a sense of chaos. Rather than inflicting a sense of rush within the biker I did it around him to suggest that urban areas are pure mayhem.
