I was on Rue de Picardie about to cross Rue de Bretagne in the 3rd Arrondissement when I noticed the woman in the window smoking a cigarette. From a distance, she reminded me of Miss Marple but not so much when I got closer. There aren't many things I enjoy more than wandering around with my camera at night in European cities.
Have a great weekend!

"Street photography, a genre of photography that records everyday life in a public place. The very publicness of the setting enables the photographer to take candid pictures of strangers, often without their knowledge."
James, a great shot of nightlife in a cafe. Funny the women should remind you of Ms Marple. Was she knitting? Wonderful street photo.
ReplyDeleteThere is something very mysterious about the lighting and content of this photo. I can totally see why Ms Marple came to mind. What a delicious thought!
ReplyDeleteThe deep colors and shadows are so interesting.
ReplyDeleteLove the colors in this one. The hat probably makes her look like miss Marple from a distance, but I don't think she smokes, haha.
ReplyDeleteVery nice street shot, and a very Parisian feel to it.
ReplyDeleteMine is in London but bears some similarities - same angle, women peeping out of the window, but mine is more reflection than street photo
belle scène !
ReplyDeleteGreat capture! I love the Parisian scene that I hear accordion music in my mind with your photo.
ReplyDeleteMysterious and perfect lighting for a night shot James. Thanks for hosting and have a great week ahead
ReplyDeleteWonder if she saw you, I'm amazed people are allowed to smoke inside there.
ReplyDeleteGreat photo!
ReplyDeleteTitle reminded me of Asterix :-)
ReplyDeleteMiss Marple would never smoke!! This lady reminds me more of an old Coco Chanel, or even Karen Blixen (who smoked very much )
