The Waiter


I recognized this handsome waiter at Nemours from another trip to Paris. That sunny afternoon he served us champagne outside. This rainy January day, we had a cozy lunch inside.  I'm amazed at how many photographs I snapped from my seat that last day in Paris.

  2. I am not amazed that you look around, see, take it all in, and then photograph vividly and splendidly. Not amazed or surprised. I think it's in your breathing.

  6. Ha ha! I tried taking pictures of waiters when I was in France, but I was just too conspicous. One at Le Comptoir des Saint-Peres looked exactly like a children's book character called Prince Cinders. The other, at the Auberge Ravoux, was the spitting image of Neville Longbottom.

  8. Malyss, I am going to try and take some prints to Paris for my "favortes"! :)

    Pup, Well I call this one Monsieur Dreamy! HA

    Leif, The last day is always bittersweet.

    Lynnette, What is really funny is I hesitate to ever pull my camera out in a cafe. This day, I was in Last Day Mode and was snapping everything that stood still long enough. I've posted at 4 or 5 photos from that one luncheon!

  9. Yep, he is handsome, but I snapped a photo of the famous Bartender at P.J.Clarks in NYC, he was also a cutie pie.
    Our minds seem to be intune.

  14. Definitely a blog-worthy specimen, ce jeune homme! I always get even more snap-happy on the last day, trying to take as many pics as possible before I have to get on that darn plane.
