- Luc 11y agoThey are used. These images are real in the same way a fashion shoot is real.
- pavlov 11y agoExactly. The light in the images gives a hint of how the illusion of emptiness was created. They're all shot early in the morning, waiting for the right moment when nobody is in the frame. I have a book called "Tokyo Nobody" which does the same thing with Tokyo city scenes. It's unsettling because we're so used to seeing the same streets bustling with people.

- seren 11y agoThis is true for the historical center, not for the suburbs. Most people are leaving outside the Paris city limits anyway (Paris: 2M, whole Paris area: 12 M). And siblings hare already answered, they are still used.
