Challenge 403: Arts et Metiers
I spent last weekend in Paris. Sorry to rub it in, but I just like saying that. And yes, very splendid it was too. On my travels through the Metro I passed through the Arts et Métiers station, and just had to get off and take some photographs: the whole station has been designed in the style of a Jules Verne submarine, to commemorate the nearby Conservatoire of science and technology. So... what sort of people would use an underground train station like this? And is that crack in the wall in danger of leaking? High res is here.  |

Vanishing Filter, now there’s an interesting little tool I have not tried before. Now I am not suggesting that France is full of thugs but how long would it stay clean if it were in London?  |

I totally think "fantasy" has/needs no rhyme nor reason ....... however, I' m thinking that if the skeketon is sitting on the bench, then the bench should be casting a shadow as well - and that we wouldn't see the pelvic area....ya think? love the atmosphere you've created.
