Paris Photo 2017

If you are in Paris the second weekend in November, you must see Paris Photo. Held in the Grand Palais for three days, it's well worth the 30 euros! I FINALLY was able to see it this last trip. It's an amazing visual overload of photography. So worth it.

Une autre vue

Pardon. I was so thrilled to be inside the Grand Palais for the fabulous Paris Photo Exhibit, I have many photos to share. Another Paris memory that I will never forget.

Sourires

These two charming young ladies were enjoying the wonderful photography exhibit in front of the Hôtel de Ville this morning last November.  Visiting Paris from I can't remember where in Europe, they seemed as happy as I was to be there!

Toujours la pluie

 The French love their art and I am always amazed that they will queue up for hours.  Last November as we left the fabulous Brassaï exhibit at the Hôtel de Ville, we saw this line waiting in the rain.  This particular umbrella, says it all in Paris!

Photo Month in Paris - Yousuf Karsh

If you love Paris and you love photography, then November is the month you need to go!  For the entire month, fabulous exhibits, many free, are offered all over Paris from the Grand Palais to the smallest galleries.  We didn't opt for the extravaganza Paris Photo, at the Grand Palais, but in one day saw three terrific exhibits, at no cost.  Today we visit the Mona Bismarck American Center, just across the Seine from la Tour Eiffel.  The Yousuf Karsh exhibit was excellent.  You might not have know his name but you certainly would know his work.
