Tom Baker imagines a life in Los Angeles without any traffic. Given the amount of traffic LA receives on a daily basis, Tom’s images are probably a dream come true for some drivers.

MAN HOW NICE WOULD THAT BE FOR ME. hahaha
Interesting project, but the first photo (the one you’re displaying in this post) threw me off. The shot is actually of Ventura, CA, a city located an hour north of LA.
I’d bet money he did Tom Baker did this using the “Stacks” feature in Photoshop. It’s an easy trick, but like any post processing it’s only really interesting if it enhances the original (unprocessed) image in some way…
Times Square totally empty except for a guy selling hot-dogs… that would be cool!
Here’s a good How-To on stacks:
