[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The was taken in Paris, in the Musee d'Orsay. There is this big clock face on the 3rd or 4th floor in the side of the building, with glass through which you have a great view onto the city.
A real people magnet.

GRAND TRAVAIL,SALUT

Hello Jacques.
This is a great work!
I like the B/W with its tone and light.Excellent cropping/composition.I also lòike the graphical effect and the human figure "makes" the photo.
really well done.

Good compo and a really nice B&W. Well done. Thanks for shearing.

Impossible de manquer un rendez-vous quand on a l'heure sous les yeux à ce point-là...
Très belle utilisation du contraste.
Bien vu!

My first thought was "How Soon Is Now?" by Morrisey. The second was Chaplin and his "Modern Times". My third and final thought is - great cropping and nice contrast.

Excellent!
Subject - Unusual and VERY interesting.
Treatment - silhouette is perfectly managed.
Composition - I like the arrangement, especially with the crop into the top of the circle.
Iwould have liked to have seen the clock hands showing a different time - like 14:50 or similar - so that the hands were splayed. As it is, they are recognisable as the hands but, if you have had too much red wine this early in the day, they look like a second human figure, long-haired, hanging upside down.
Last - the grille at the bottom is simply wonderful.

Bravo Jacques pour ce contre jour hors du temps …
Antonio

wow
great perspective and composition!
Well done!
ana:)

It's great that view! I know a place i can do it in Montre.al but the the diaporama is the street. Not enough high! I like the interrelation. Time, place an man in the middle of all that! B&W

Brilliant silhouette! Excelent composition & cropping. Exposure - well, some might argue that the city in the center of the image is overexposed, but that all depends on the application of the image.

But that is not the way I feel about the image. I love it! Even the symmetry in the image makes it stronger, adding to the mood and impact. TFS.

Hi Jaques!


wonderful image, it is very artistic. very expressive, and it deeply comunicaticates a lot.
at the same time it's very clean.
perfect choice of B/W, and why not perfect shot!

super well done, complimenti


ciao
Carolina

Beautiful capture with light... and composition... and depth
So okay
