Paris metro sign lit by setting sun
I was inside the cafe on this freezing March day, and this chap was outside having his smoke and coffee. This was shot thru the window.

One of the many amazingly beautiful statues in Pere Lachaise Cemetery in Paris, France. I liked how the windows from a building behind peaked through the bare trees looking almost like stained glass.
Photographed-and touched(!) in a Parisian shop selling design pieces. i would love this in my large lounge, but didn’t dare ask the price. / “Created in 1978 for the Palazzo dei Diamanti in Ferrara, Proust was immediately recognized as an icon of twentieth century design and one of the most renowned and essential reference points in the quest for form and aesthetic perfection. Cappellini inherited the piece in 1993 and today Proust Geometrica, reupholstered in a new cotton fabric by Alessandro Mendini and hand-finished according to tradition, preserves the forms of the original armchair while refreshing them and breathing new life into the image and value of the original design.”

Windows in Paris again. what a shame the old balcony railings have been replaced on the left window by modern non-descript ones! The many scultures were to show how rich you were!

Usually this is forbidden, but here it was part of a graffiti exhibition in Paris, so they were enjoying themselves. The little boy watching his father was dying to have a go.
The quote below is from the blog of an artist called John Unger who is actually being sued by a manufacturer who stole his work and is making knock offs that he sells around the country..I’ve been following the story which is really appalling…I know that many of us are not in a position to help him, but you may know someone who can afford his art which is being sold at great discounts to help him fight his case..the artist sold his work on line much like we do…put yourself in his place…what would you do? Please tweet this post, or add a link to this page in your journal or face book and myspace etc….. “I believe his goal is to use strong-arm litigation tactics to force me to keep spending money or risk losing my copyrights — not by true adjudication, but by default if he is able to outspend me”. for the whole story click HERE Please also read the comments….they are very eye opening, especially the one about the woman who bought art and then had them mass produced and resold
canon eos 7d_kit /// zoom play Velib (bycicle) in Paris, France walking through the fogy memories I see endless sphere in black and white / they are neglected by space and time / and I nicely store my days in boxes / and left my whishes so far behind / I find my salvation in playing hide and seek in this labyrinth / and my sense of connection / is lost and found / like the sound of my steps / soft delicate and loud / :)
Parisian elegance
As the title suggests, this is a group to display all your Paris related art.
A great many of the users on the site have visited Paris and
captured their representations of the city, and quite a few of us live
there. And, like many cities, Paris offers an infinity of images to be captured, scenes to be painted, and there could never be enough words to describe it.
Also, as this is a new group it will take a while to grow and to find it’s direction, I guess. But if any members have any suggestions or ideas to improve or aid the development, please, do not hesitate to contact the group hosts.
