A walk through Paris

35mm ...... T Max 100

Simply plain atmosphere. Oh, yes, it's perfect from a technical perspective, too. But this isn't so important to me.

I share some thought with Harald, I find it a bit empty but very severe or strict.

[Bruce Cox]

This is one of my favorites of your postings.  It is very full and to me implies many other things and doings.  
Also, if its subjects were not so grandly elongated it would be a proper square composition.

[AFairley]

Yes great atmosphere, as with most of your photos.

It has a feeling of an image from the early 1900's -- Needs a carriage racing thru > a few pedestrians with big hats and long coats,      Yes, maybe sterile > but the lines all fit.  The dual arch and the afternoon light, streaming through,  to cast a shadow repeating those lines ( on a different plane )  ...the verticals seem to hold there strength here .  Just had a 24mm /tripod / on my Nikon ... sure I saw this second image that I have uploaded BUT no zoom.  

[Eric Myrvaagnes]

I agree with Bruce. This is one of my favorites of yours. Many interesting details, complex composition, but beautifully balanced.

I hope the Plustek scanner gets in stock soon ..  ready to load more images ...100's to go /// books of negatives on the shelf \\ Never under a scanner .....

Sterile only means it is uncontaminated.  Such a shame it is just on 35mm.  It would sing on 4x5 and even 6x6.

It has hints of an old favourite of mine, Frederick H Evans.

For me the second one works a little better. I like them both, but on the first one I'd be tempted to clone out the shadows on the ground to the left of the lamp post because they look incongruous to me. Also there's a bit of a halo around the lamp post which I find distracting, but that could just be a compression artifact.

Very busy thorough fare ... was hard to capture the image sans people ... was on a tripod with a cable release ,,,just waiting. Never thought about something called digital or CS in those days ...

It made me think of Evans, too. Very fine shot.

These images don't need anything human to walk through them. They are just fine as they are. Well spotted and very pleasing to view.

Thanks all -- I hope that the scanner gets here -- will load another years worth , at least
