Oh Pablo



November, 2014 marked the reopening of the Musée Picasso ,after an extended renovation. The Métros paid homage to him in many delightful ways. I like to think that my talented photographer friend Jean-luc Rollier's sense of humor that he often shares in his street photography, was my inspiration here.

I first met Jean-luc on Red Bubble where we both shared our images. That led to buying his street photography book on Blurb. When I was in Paris a few years ago, we arranged a meet up for coffee and he signed my copy. Since then, he's moved to the Brittany coast, so haven't met again, but I follow his work on Facebook, and we have continued our friendship there. Merci, mon ami.

Pablo

 The Saint Paul Métro was decked out in Picasso this last trip.  I'm assuming in honor of the newly reopened Musée Picasso that opened in November after a long restoration.  It's always a treat to see new décor in the Métro.
