It's Spring. The temperature is crisp and unpredictable so boots, a heavy coat and hat are necessities. Her name is Lucia. She is on a mission, her feet following the procession of trees before her. All is not as it seems. As the camera barrel rotated to its wide angle it revealed what lay in the perimeter. In one swift movement she swung her back pack from her shoulder, unzipped it and reached inside ....
She must be a French girl, because only a local would rush through the Palais Royal looking at the ground! (I was recently thinking how un-chic I am to carry a backpack. I feel better now—merci, Genie.)
Excellent shot.
ReplyDeleteOh, yes! A terrific shot indeed! You do find the good ones, Genie! Have a lovely tomorrow!

She just left le petit ami and is late to go back to work!

ReplyDelete"Was she off to meet un petit ami
ReplyDeleteor just rushing back to work?"
I don't know, but she looks trés chic! Yes, she is DEFINITELY a French girl :^)
Votre image de la jeune femme dans le jardin est merveilleuse. Mais en noir et blanc? Je ne suis pas sûr. Je pense que la couleur serait plus gentille
ReplyDeleteMais comme Tamara a dit, «très chic!»
Étreintes de bénédictions et d'ours!

Wonderful shot.
ReplyDeleteWhat's the weather like in Paris? I'm visiting next week and am not sure whether to bring my thick winter jacket or not.
Looks cold. I can she why she's walking fast!
ReplyDeleteI love the action in this photo. Her feet are a blur.

ReplyDeleteElle regarde peut-être par terre pour éviter les crottes de chien.
ReplyDeleteEven the most enchanting places become nondescript when you see them every day.
ReplyDeleteRob-bear, I was tempted to show her long silky chestnut locks, but it just seemed like a moody b/w photo.
ReplyDeleteladyfi, highs in the low 50s (F), brrrrrr!
Alexa, I am certain that you are always chic, and have a kick in your step as well!
French girl, indeed.
Bises,
Genie
Love the motion!
