Serious clowns


Round the corner from the Covent Garden tube station, I caught these clowns in somewhat of a quiet moment.

I enjoy this picture, Azlin, because of its incongruity. The clowns, which are supposed to be happy, are ignored, and the reflection proves it. If you had been able to use a spot meter and meter on the burned out paper, the entire image would have become more dark and somber, intensifying the mood. You might still be able to darken it somewhat in photoshop to get the same effect.
