Description
A huge clock at the top of MusΓ©e d'Orsay, Paris, France.Once a train station, the precinct holds now the most important impressionist paintings collection.
This composition is merely a contrast based shot. Colour didn't add much to the pic so I went to B/W.
If I could redo de shot I would have wait until a single person look to the outside... the crowd reduced the true potential of the comp.

nice work with the B/W and light!! And I think if you go to Paris, the city of black and white, you have to take some photos with this effect. Also in honor of Robert Doisneau

Ohmai. I love this shot. Although, like you said; I wish the people viewing it were all staring outside like the last women on the left. It's so much more captivating than as if it was a point and shoot. I love it though.

Indeed, I wish I could return and ask a model looking to the outside, the museum is so crowded that I'd have to be the first to enter!

This image to me make me feel like we are all slaves to time and shows the lack of control we have over it. (but that is only my opinion) I like this shot a lot!

Interesting view! Indeed, the clock is so predominant that let the people look small... Thank you for sharing your view, it definitely adds value to the shot.
