Mid Month Theme: Subway Day


As most of you know, Birmingham lacks a rapid transit system.  Before I left for Paris, I asked if I could join the prestigious "Mid Month Theme- Subway Day" group if I could capture a decent Metro photo while I was there.  My friend Peter graciously accepted my offer and slyly passed his photo entry for December off to moi!  Today my photo is on Peter's Paris blog and I am most honored to be sitting there amongst all of his fabulous Paris photos. Here, I post a few more Metro/Subway photos to continue the theme.   Thanks everyone for letting me jump in with your group!!  Who knows, maybe there will be more Paris Metro photos in my future.  Peter, we'll negotiate, oui? Please visit the other Mid Month Theme: Subway  blogs below:

This lovely man in the beret was such a dear.  Even though he and I could not really converse  he managed to show me that we were on the wrong "side".  We ran around and I  quickly snapped this from across the tracks.  Merci monsieur!!!


This festive Metro stop is near le Palais Royal


Paris 2007,  my favorite Metro photo from that trip.

I love the beautiful lamps in this one


*My sincere thanks to my friend Bob Crowe for working a little Photoshop magic on some of these.  A tripod is not an option in the Metro so ...well you know what was wrong don't you!
