I love this and I think that negative clarity is something everyone should explore. Interestingly, looking at the negative of a lot of sliders can be a good thing., I believe we get used to pushing sharpness, saturation, contrast, clarity and whatever else and going the other direction can really push some creative buttons.

negative clarity is awesome for those of us over 40

Going to jump in here, this from last Christmas on a foggy day, the person happened to be walking by during a semi-long exposure and the effect turned out sort of cool.

This is a photo I made of the blimp hanger at what was once a Navy base at Moffett Field in Mountain View, California.

I've got the color version I'll post in my Vacation/NYC post (it was an amazing sunset, got neat color reflections off the buildings), but I thought this worked well in B&W, kind of amplifies the neat symmetry with the reflection.

And yes, I'm hanging out the window about 20 stories up

No, it's a single exposure.

A guy named Andres Amador creates interesting patterns on beaches using a variety of rakes, brooms, and other tools.. He's very talented.

Try a google image search on Andres Amador. You'll see a bunch of beach patterns that will blow you away.
