Musique Improvisée


Le Pied a Terre on rue Mouffetard is a favorite of mine.  The street dining is limited to two tiny tables perched precariously on the uneven sidewalk.   While enjoying a nice café, this gentleman serenaded his companion and the delighted passersby.

Warm regards.

Two tables? One would feel very lucky to score a seat. Lovely in the B&W, dear V. Hugs to you and Meepsie...

La musique, c'est encore plus sympa quand il n'y a pas de haut-parleur.

Oh! wish I was there.
I'd love to stay in Paris for 2 weeks, so much to see and FEEL.

His companion doesn't seem all that interested.

Another fine discovery for you today, Virginia. I wonder how they make money with only two tables, one of which is occupied by a guy playing the guitar.

Next time I go to Paris I might even remember that delightfully named street Rue Mouffetard and find the café.

Great shot! Looking at the sign I guess you took this on a Wednesday.

And you! Wonderful shot, V!

Wonderful picture. How do people have the guts to just sit out and perform like that?!

I LOVE this shot. Everything about it. The guitar, the mans expression, the woman next to him... Everything about this shot screams of authenticity. Well done!
