VACANCES EN FRANCE PARTIE: LES QUINZE/ HOLIDAYS IN FRANCE: PART FIFTEEN




I immersed myself in the streets of Paris. I wanted to drink in my surroundings, I knew our journey was nearing the end. and I wanted to capture the vibrancy of the streets and taste the quiet moments of movement around me.

Since Paris is widely accepted as the birthplace of street photography, I knew I had to end our holiday attempting to show a vision of a situation and place; a place that was going to forever capture my heart. Paris is such a cosmopolitan city and it has helped to define street photography as a genre, and the photography has helped to form the city as people know it.

I had captured the Eiffel Tower, The Louvre and now I wanted to show its true spirit, the people of Paris. This collection of images is from the last two days in Paris.






I normally do not use vertical images to keep a continuity to the images here, but so many of my street style images of people are vertical, so I broke my own rule for this post.
