I looked over my shoulder at the sea of grim faces and above them the railway clock, an orange oblong with yellow digits read 08:50. It was a great image and wished I had my camera. I wondered what was going on the world at this moment in time? What goes on in Toyko, or New York or what about the Gobi desert or a farm in Poland at ten to nine in the morning?

Hence this site: The ‘08fifty’ project. The aim is collect the best photos of the social world, taken at 0850, and show them here.
