Thursday walking along Oak drive

I had planned to construct an image like this while walking on Thursday. Is the editing process at odds with Utata's "Thursday walk" ethos?

Technical trivia:
The intentionally overexposed B&W images give dark moving ghosts on a white background. Extracting one color layer from three successive photos and re-combining them into a composite gives ghosts that are yellow, cyan, and magenta colored. This is because two color layers of the white background overlap with the darker subject (imagine either combining two color layers on black, 0+2, or the equivalent subtracting one color layer from white, 3-1). To achieve the desired red, green, and blue layers I generated complimentary RGB and GBR images then merged them, so that the ghost appeared as the desired color.
