Paris in the Fall…

As many of you know, I went to Paris about a week and a half ago to participate in a seminar hosted by Strobist David Hobby.

I decided to take a cue from good friend Chris Weeks and spend the majority of my free time on street photography.

I got started at the airport when I saw this interesting gentleman getting a little too close to his screeen.

Then I noticed this happy fellow on his phone.

Back to our original guy who made himself more comfortable.

My room at the Formule One Hotel was next to a 300 year old graveyard.

If you’ve never stayed in a European style hotel, here’s a glimpse of my tiny room. Restrooms and showers were down the hall.

I love taking photos at night. Here’s someone waiting at a metro station.

This woman in her mid-thirties was playing an intense game on a Nintendo DS.

I loved this guy’s expression as he looked up at a pretty young girl.

I’ll leave you tonight with a teaser of one of the most famous monuments in the world.

  1. Very nice photos! Love the subway ones and the one where the first guy made himself more comfortable made me laugh.

    Hope your trip and the seminar was good!

    Ciao.

    um … post these on uber, bro.

    forget the standalone blogs … seriously … blogging as part of a community gets you way more “play.”

    nice nice stuff …
