Vue de café


I stopped at this café one summer afternoon,  just a block from the Place des Vosges,  to relax with a glass of wine.  I had a nice table facing the street and spotted this lovely lady across the way.  I wanted to  capture more of her, but I think her dress and the motorcycle makes it even more typical of the diversity you often see on the streets of Paris.

Well done, V—see what happens when you stop to sip the wine! I wear glasses ALL the time, and wish I could pull off bright red ones like that. :~}

Virginia, you have a winner here. I love the colors of the woman against the darkness elsewhere.

This is a reminder of how nice it is to just sit and watch the wonderful show that's constantly happening in Paris.

I do love that song and I really enjoyed seeing the photos on the video. Merci!

A very daring piece of clothing... but not out of place in Paris, where one sees everything under the sun...

Love the splash of colors against the grayish background and the dark bike.
