Captured with a small full frame mirrorless camera and 21mm lens.
A six second exposure created a motion study; we can see how people move around the plaza. Or perhaps they’re ghosts.
Compositionally, this is mostly a study of circles and rings, with an imaginary diagonal radiating from the fountain to the man with the camera in the lower right.

The composition brings to my mind “Beat the Whites with the Red Wedge”, by El Lissitzky.
