I would like to have your experimented opinion on this picture i took last week at Paris with my new M7.

I don't know why but i think that these persons a little leaning give an impression of movement on this famous place.

Do you agree with me ?

that's also the first time i use the Portra 400 Iso film

Weather : no sun , many low clouds in the sky and very cold, time 11.00 am

Thanks for looking

Comments are welcome.

M7 28mm f:2 asph Kodak Portra 400

no "treatment" (uncorrected) for this picture

Henri,

 

Very nicely composed giving it a pleasing perspective. I also like the subtle light and colours. A nice slice of life capture and as you say, the people going along their way give it a sense of movement.

Henry, I was in Paris at the same time you were and that's the same sky I had on all my pictures. It was really cold and that kind of sky do not help with photos.

What amaze me in this picture is the absence of people in a place that is almost always very crowdy.

The composition is very good and the man walking breaks the stillness of the place

Thank you Ivan, Enrico and Ghulkhan for your comments greatly appreciated.

 

Ivan,

"A nice slice of life capture and as you say, the people going along their way give it a sense of movement."

yes it's just

and I want to add that the Cron 28 mm give us an impression that people is "smaller" like we can see when we are very far from them

 

Enrico,

I was at the Louvre on Tuesday and it was closed.

If you are at Paris last week may be you did like me : go to the Orsay museum near of the Louvre opened on Tuesday...i will post for you an other picture with no people on this place

 

Ghulkan,

You are right for the sky.

Thanks for your comment
