I really like it Peter, it conveys your title, compositional balance and I like the detail of the small walkers

I agree with Tim!
It DOES actually look like a match-stick model for some future development. You have to look twice to realise that it is already here!
What a wonderful, wide, traffic-free space! I guess that it is why, at first glance, it is easier to read 'concept' rather than 'reality' into the image?
Where is this Peter? Looks worth a visit...

I also agree with Tim

It's a great looking photo Peter! I like the depth in the picture.

Very nice "back to the future" shot! The only thing I miss here are flying cars and busses

Very nice -- and looks like La Defense (Paris) and taken from the grand arch??? My wife and I were there about three years ago and took loads of photos (I with my GX200 -- before GXR times...). Regrettably, we did not have such a fine weather. Nevertheless, we took loads of photos...
Best regards, Gerd

Exactly so. It is one fascinating city in a city, the Photographer's Eden so to say, with a lot of inspiring views and subjects.

I does look futuristic & almost car free.

Phil, it is a traffic free area for pedestrians only. All the roads and parking lots are underground as also the subway is.

Very fine .... lovely balance and detail so crystal clear

though this perhaps would be a signature of a future without innocence , a machine driven dehumanized world :shock:

Cheers , Kort .

Great picture, looks very interesting.

If that was in England, it would be full of hoodies on skateboards, and BMX bikes :roll:

Only one roller skater was there practising the backward slalom that time. It seems the area is a bit expensive and out of reach for hoodies.
