I just LOVE it, Alexig!! The bright red adds to the chaos of the people movement and the feeling of people moving in every direction. Really cool! markjay

Many thanks for comment, JudyH and Traveller.
Traveller: PS was quite simple here: Shadow/Highlight + global/local contrast + saturation.
This brought quite a bit of noise because the effect was as if pushing ISO800 to ISO1600. Therefore I applied NeatImage and the noise was reduced considerably. Usually I have used demo version of Neatimage which I downloaded aout 2 years ago, but this time I decided to buy the new version. I must say that improvement is considerabl both in effect and speed. It is worth every penny.
After that I resized it and sharpened. Thats all.

Alex, Could you tell us a little about the processing of this image...how you got the reds so deep on the bottom and yet kept a relatively clean top portion. Thanks, Traveller

What a beautiful and evocative image....for various reasons I don't have my normal time to comment or analize...but this is great. Best Wishes, Traveller
