This is just an image to remind that not everyone in Paris is well-off. The contrast between the Arc, busyness of the city and that poor man with propably all he owns gives something to think about.

Your photograqphy amazes me! Most of your pics are truly great! You have a great eye. Did you ever try Black and White? That is what I mostly use. However, your pics make me want to try some color again.... Once again, great work!

I really am impressed by your images (and your website). One thought on this one. The tree coming out of the mans head bothers me. Youmight have stepped to the left or right and have avoided it. But I like the feel. Very nice catch. Matt

Very good picture, but I wold have cropped it a bit to get the large lantern posts on the front out of the picture. They are a bit disturbing. Martin
