Les yeux bleus


Seen on Rue Butte aux Cailles, the eyes appear to follow you as you walk.
Do you think it would be a bit disturbing
to have them positioned right outside of your apartment window?

Could these be the eyes of Dr. Eckelberg, blue and gigantic?

    Since I see eyeglasses on so many Parisian children, they must do a booming business here! :)

    Mais oui! I wonder if this is what FSF had in mind when he wrote The Great Gatsby? Are the eyes of God big, blue and dangling over Paris? Peut-être since He does see everything ...

    Maybe they are peering off across the city at the Eye-ful Tower! (Sorry—couldn't help myself.)

    LOL LOL This reminds me of a clock my sister had of Betty Boop. Her eyes move back and forth in the clock as it ticks! LOL

    Har. I am laughing at Alex's joke. These could hardly be called baby-blues, but I like them. Maybe not staring at my window, though.

    it's for very myopic persons. they look sad because a kind of "last look before glasses (and you'll see how ugly is the world when you really see it").
