Le Lumiere

Taken inside the Lumière Museum in Lyon, France, this round window immediately felt to me like an eye looking out to the world beyond the dark interior. I have always loved the details in old French buildings, and the way this window was set deep into the wall made it feel less like a window and more like a lens, or a quiet opening to the outside. The contrast between the shadowed room and the soft light beyond gave the whole scene a calm, almost watchful feeling.
