Bumper to Bumper


In Paris, the cars and even the tables and chairs are a tight fit!

Belle journée,

I believe that one of those chairs has my name on it. Ahhh, to return back to Paris.

I love this photo. What a fascinating cafe!

Vreni said...

In Vienna I don´t like it when you sit so close to the cars and the tables are too closely aligned, but in Paris it´s just the way it has to be...

Who needs a private conversation when you are in Paris?

Louise said...

I love the line of those chairs. Beautiful.

Such a clever way of using distance and array style composition

Not usually enjoyed with car noise and the smell of a car exhaust pipe when having a bit of cafe au lait and good conversation, but by golly when I'm in Paris in October, I will turn the other cheek and smile. :-)

Judy Mac, oui, turn the other cheek my dear. When in Paris, one must do as the Parisians do!

Just enough room to squeeze in! I wish I was there. :)

It's nice to sit outside, even though you pay for the privilege.

Janey and Co. said...

I'd like to park myself there!

Alexa said...

A little closeness makes it easier to eavesdrop!

Mary said...

Sometimes there's a lot to be said for a tight squeeze. Very intimate. Hard to stay strangers in a city like that one, i imagine. :)

Jack said...

Oh Lord! I don't think I would fit in there.

Jeanie said...

I'm very behind catching up with you! This is lovely -- really enjoy the b/w. Yes, those are a tight squeeze!

Sketchbook Wandering said...

A tight fit, indeed. It makes for a gorgeous photo, Symmetry, rhythm, texture, patterns...Paris, how I love her!

TheChieftess said...

So very Paris...but where are all the Parisians sitting and lingering over a cup of cafe or a glass of wine???

A day when there was a lot of space to sit down! Obviously a cold winter day ... and not even a smoker sitting there! :-)
