    Excellent work Dominic! I especially loved the cityscapes from Chicago where the orange haze made it feel endless.
  • Andrea Allen staff 9 months ago
    Yeah! Chicago looked like a scene straight out of Blade Runner.

  • Chris Giordano plus 9 months ago
    This is great work Dominic, absolutely stunning cityscapes. One can only stand in awe at the scale of these cities and how we have mastered the manipulation of metals to create these buildings. Such a magically peaceful ending; I'd say you accomplished your goal!
  • Dominic plus 9 months ago
    Mission accomplished then ! Thanks.

  • Toonna Obi-Okoye 9 months ago
    even be4 i clicked play,i knew u would use Hans Zimmer's Time from Inception; an absolutely celestial piece of music. To describe it more aptly, according to a fan's comment, "Dammit, who stole God's ipod!?" and watch u have done is to say "Dammit, who stole God's screensaver!?", pure brilliance, thanks for sharing.

  • Toonna Obi-Okoye 9 months ago
    not 2 sound like spam or a crazed fan, but any creative thinker shud get Inception OST by Hans Zimmer, play that blessing in ur ears in the cool of the evenin, maybe take a walk out on a busy street.D contradiction of being in the midst of the chaos of the busy street and being lost in the surreal sounds permeating ur being thru ur earfones is sure 2 birth some unprecedented gem of creativity, its pure audible bliss! Now you have blessed my ears and mind eyes, thank you again!
  • Dominic plus 9 months ago
    Couldn't agree more ! Thanks for the comment !

  • Joshua Pace 9 months ago
    Great video! Hope you don't mind me asking, but what camera do you use?
  • Dominic plus 9 months ago
    I used a Canon 5D Mark II.
  • Did you shoot video and speed it up, or did you use stills?
  • David 9 months ago
    Wondering the same! Looks like speedup video?

  • Romulic & Stojcic plus 9 months ago
    The city shots look very nice, esp. the "birds eye" ones, but when it got to the nature I really enjoyed it. That shot of the sunken ship was exceptionally beautiful. Music... It's a great piece, but perhaps a bit overused lately so it doesn't have the same impact it should.
