When You Push Doors...


at the Place des Vosges, you discover wonderful little courtyards with great old bikes leaning against great old walls!

Nosey Parker! It has its rewards, I see.

Place des Vosges, tu risques aussi de croiser des gens célèbres.

Oh.. very nice, I think this bike could tell an interesting story.

I'm tempted to procure a charming old bike to lean against my wall ... but it wouldn't be the same, would it. Lovely, V. Hugs to you and Meepsie.

Virginia said...

Alain, the only famous person I've come across is Peter! :) And he's the one that taught me to push doors.

Love just the slight hint of color in this shot.

Be careful...I don't want to have to take up a collection to come and bail you out!

Such a charming scene, Virginia. You take this one, I'll take the man's bike around the corner, and we'll go for a ride around the city.

The bike looks nearly as old as the wall.

I love the rusted colours here! Perfect photo!!!

Alexa said...

I had a feeling you were an inveterate door-pusher, V! And look what you got for your chutzpah—what a great shot this is.

Harriet said...

What a great find! Keep pushing those doors.
