Powell's Books is a huge store in downtown Portland, Oregon. Powell's is on Burnside, a major street that divides Portland into North and South. The shots that make up this short montage were captured one night while I waited for the #20 bus to take me home.- Powell's Books

Taking something so evident and making it interesting seems to be your innate quality. Your video never ceases to impress me.
these viddeos are just inspiring. So beautiful and simple, I kind of wonder why I didn't think of it first!
This is becoming a great series!
I've stood there a hundred times. It's a lot cooler and spookier the way you do it.
Is that done with AfterEffects, maybe?
Thanks for the kind words Blake, Juan and Hastur. The compositing was done in Final Cut Express. I've been without Final Cut for over a month, so this was my "knocking off the mental rust" experiment.
Burnside is nice but the real star of this piece is SW 10th (and to a lesser extent NW 10th). At one point, in the second set up, I thought I saw a dog get run over by the streetcar. Nighttime can play tricks on your mind.
