Au milieu des pigeons (Weekend Street/Reflections # 127)

 

Paris, France

It was a cold day in March 2013 near L'Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel. 


                             Have a great weekend!

Now you can link reflections and/or street photography. 

Please no posed pictures, portraits, animals, etc. unless there is a reflection.

"Street photography is 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."

    Lovely shot of the young boy and pigeons on a collision course in your street photo.

    Nice catch, your camera's photo, not the boy catching a pigeon.
    My granddaughter chased them away, I have a Venice one of her doing that. Today's photo is of her riding the train going from London to Paris, either the Eurostar channel one or to an airport to hop a plane further to Paris.
    BTW, daughter, her Mom, ran the Paris Marathon in 2013, that I think, was our last of many to Paris. We cheered her along from several places along her way.

      The granddaughter says that the Eurostar doesn't make a Paris stop anymore. She's in London working for a couple of weeks now.
      Wonder why she won't get to celebrate "Independance Day"??
      Not her company's holiday.

    Nicely composed. I like the way that the tilt emphasizes the child's downward gaze.

    That's a perfectly caught action shot. I haven't seen many pidgeons here.
