Mmmm… I love fondue and raclette. And that middle back isn’t too shabby either
.

If you tried to take a picture of my backside at the beach I might just have to break your camera–or it might just break. Great shots as usual.
June 24th, 2008 at 5:31 am
What a pretty restaurant. And the people at the beach? That almost looks posed because how could they all be facing away at the same time?
But I love it. I bet it would look great framed.
June 24th, 2008 at 7:04 am
most artful, but I wish I had a pair of those cool flowered jams for myself
June 24th, 2008 at 7:04 am
then, of course, I would have to get some checkered vans for my feet and I could be my hero, Jeff Spicoli…
June 24th, 2008 at 8:58 am
Mmm… that back picture? Niiiice.
June 24th, 2008 at 9:20 am
the LATIN section of Paris? How … odd.
June 24th, 2008 at 10:01 am
The restaurant photo caught my eye immediately. Whoa! I love those tans, browns and almost copper colors in the wood. The gold lettering leaps out too, and looks crisp and sharp. Great shot!
I’ve seen those teens at our beaches. Always hanging around…
June 24th, 2008 at 10:19 am
I love the restaurants in the Latin Quarter. Each one is so different from the next. Walking through that area at nighttime is magical
June 24th, 2008 at 10:57 am
Those are both fantastic! I could stare at both picking out neat little details. Like how all the people in the last shot are all in different positions… or how the letters of the shop discription are all on different pieces of wood.
I wore my earrings on Saturday! I love them. We need to take matching ear pictures.
June 24th, 2008 at 11:18 am
What great photos! I like your ideas about things – how you put them together. See! You already have the skills to work at an ad agency.
June 24th, 2008 at 11:49 am
beautiful restaurant front!
June 24th, 2008 at 12:20 pm
Oh, that beach picture looks mightly inviting. Despite summer not being my favorite, being in the water puts it in an entirely different classification. I miss the days when we lived in a townhouse community full of mostly elderly residents and the pool was more or less our own private pool! Those were the good ol’ days…although I am happy to live in a house now and not share walls with other people.
June 24th, 2008 at 12:56 pm
As usual I love both your pictures!
June 24th, 2008 at 1:33 pm
Charming-asses were so much smaller then.
June 24th, 2008 at 2:54 pm
Great shots! Love the restaurant photo with all it’s detail.
June 24th, 2008 at 8:43 pm
Those are wonderful! Really great job!
June 24th, 2008 at 10:43 pm
Hahha great one for back
June 25th, 2008 at 10:57 am
Very nice. Well done.
June 25th, 2008 at 12:45 pm
Can’t decide what I like more, the front or the backs!
