January 15, 2020 by MY in Out of Town

Lick His Chops

Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Paris
December 30, 2019 by MY in Out of Town

These pups were nestled into each other on the pavement of the banks of the river Siene while their owner sold newspapers and discarded magazines to tourists. Passerbyes glanced at the furry duo and remarked in whispers to each other as they strolled on, averting direct contact with the owner.

Electric Heat

Sacré-Cœur
November 27, 2019 by MY in Out of Town

This young couple tried several times to peel away from each other, each time springing back like a rubber band and hooking onto each other with looks, limbs and lips. Electricity brimmed.

Build Up Hope

Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Paris
October 13, 2019 by MY in Out of Town

These images were taken two days after the Notre Dame Cathedral Fire. Locals and tourists flocked to behold the magnificent structure that once beamed with life, now cavernous and lacerated by flames.. In the image above, the Statue of Saint (Pope) Jean-Paul II appeared to be pleading with the firefighters for help.

Touching Moment

October 06, 2019 by MY in Out of Town

I took this photo of a boat on the Seine River without honing in on anyone in particular. Once I opened the image, I noticed what appeared to be a father and son (in center) sharing an endearing moment.

The Cliché

September 10, 2019 by MY in Out of Town

This dapper fella was perched on a stool selling tourist paintings near the Sacre Coeur (The Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Paris)). He seemed as enthused about his outfit as he was interacting with tourists. Perhaps it was a slow day.

Les Halles
September 01, 2019 by MY in Out of Town
