Can't decide whether he's wishing he could wear such a gorgeous thing on his big foot—or counting his blessings that he doesn't ever have to try to walk in something like that. Great image, especially in b&w!
And may I add that the dress was FABULOUS and I was really wanting to capture it for all my "Paris shop window" readers. I also have a wedding dress inside that I shot through the window. Later! V
Style, I don't know why but I just fell in love with that dress. Maybe some lucky lady did get it. It's a great shop. I've photographed a wedding dress in the window from my Nov. trip and posted it way back.
I'm so pleased that he walked into your photo shoot - he's gorgeous. I think he looks a tad lonely and wishes he had some-one to buy something pretty for. Maybe the shoes or maybe something that we just can't see. c'est le vie!!
Great photo...I imagine all the things that could be going thru his mind and there are many! Love the red coffee cup. You take the simplest things and make them look so beautiful. Jeanne :)
I am a former elementary school teacher, a full-time photographer, lover of all things French ( whose French is slowly improving), obsessive Paris traveler, enthusiastic church and community volunteer, and grandmother to 5 delightful grandchildren.
I fell in love with Paris in March 2007. It was as the French say, le coup de foudre : love at first sight. As a result of that trip, my photography took another direction. Since that time I have pursued a career of sorts in photography and dreamed of returning to the City of Light. November 2008 found me strolling the streets of Paris once again. My first visit I was so overwhelmed with the incredible beauty of the city, I photographed it as a "tourist". In 2008 I returned and I looked at the city with more of a photographer's eye. I wanted to capture the unique, the small details, and oh yes - the people! This blog was started as a photo diary of that trip, but I have been most fortunate to return to the city j'adore 15 times since. Each time I leave, I wipe a tear and start planning my list for the next trip. Paris may well be a moveable feast, but I think it's best savored in person! Someone told me that once you have been to Paris, you will leave a piece of your heart. I left mine right there, but I brought home some wonderful memories. It is my pleasure to share them with you.

Oh yes, it's a super shot. Perhaps he's looking at the shoe and wondering if it would suit his lady.
hee hee
This is like one of Petrea's Zen shots.
;-)
Oops, I was thinking perhaps he's looking at the shoe and wondering if it would suit himself. Jilly's idea is much better!!
This is glorious, Virginia. And B&W suits it perfectly!
wishful thinking? That is puts on the shoe?
This makes me think of Cinderella/Cinderfella. The dress is quite beautiful as are the shoes.

I like to think there's a Parisian woman who's receiving an extremely satisfying Valentine's Day gift in a couple of weeks.
Style,

I need my husband in that shot...lol! Love both dresses, that would be a dream to wear on of those.
There's nothing like a gorgeous gown to get those drag queens to stop in their tracks.
Starman,
Oui, my thoughts exactly! HAAAAAA

'Wishful Thinking' is what I have, when I look at this photograph.
Simply beautiful.
He's looking at Cinderella's shoe!
Great shot; now I see, the 'A' was for Alexis!
Mmm, what was he thinking? Perhaps he was a window dresser admiring the display, getting ideas?
