Early evening I was doing a walking photography tour on the Île Saint-Louis with Meredith Mullins. We stopped to look over the wall and this is what we found. We debated about the wrapper on the bench and Meredith offered to run down and move it, but we decided the moment would be lost. To quote Meredith's wonderful book....another Paris Moment!

All it would take is a little Photoshop and -- voila! -- it would be gone. I like the composition and wouldn't have had a problem with the wrapper if you didn't mention it.
Jack forget I mentioned it! HA
Congrats on four years of quality pix of Paris...hope that we're still going there in our 90’s!!!
It is the endless battle of the photographer!
oh you just make me want to fly home! l’Ile saint Louis, i love it so much there.
The composition in this picture is magic. And actually that wrapper is perfect where it is i feel it makes your picture stronger.

Sandra,
Thank you for stopping by and leaving such a nice comment. Actually the wrapper was shiny and distracting but in BW it does seem to belong there. I'm pleased you liked it. It's one of those "finds" you only seen in Paris I think. J'adore!!

A poetic image! :)
This is really a beautiful picture!

Keep the bottle, lose the wrapper. Or let it be, since this particular Paris moment that you captured so well did include these two elements, after all.
If I could write well, I'd want to create a story around this photo.
Did you ever find out if both belonged to l'homme?
WOW! this is another amazing shot! It's like a movie still. Its SO moody! It so reminds me of one of those arty French films!! LOVE it!! especially the wrapper! makes it true.
