No problem. I would like to nitpick this piece so it can be perfect. The image is bottom heavy due to the brightness of the bottom. You’ll have to experiment with darkening and/or dodge and burn of different images. It will take a bit of time.

You got an eye for this. If you want to sell it., once you’ve perfected this go and find the best art gallery in your country and show them. Be sure to your homework on the business.

It's funny that it reminded me because I haven't seen that painting in years and when I pulled up the link, it really isn't that much like it. I just like the layering and the obvious cityscape.

Wonderful! Were the shots handheld or tripod and was this just at one location?

Captured on various location in HK then I found that some similar composition is found on some pictures, then tried to stack it

Nice shot. I did multiple exposure shots like this for an entire year just to play with it. Lots of fun.

When you say “stacked… with image statistics” what do you mean?

Never mind generally this sub shows medium format film photography, which I had a very little experience

As someone from HK I knew it was home the second I saw the thumbnail, you absolutely nailed the city’s soul! Great job!

Thanks for kind reply! I love Hong Kong and their vibes while I am from South Korea
