It is hard to take a photo with one lone figure in Paris. Thanks to minus three degrees I managed to take this pic on Sunday morning. Paris felt deserted just the photographers and the kids hurling snow balls.
I snapped this pic on Pont Marie and thanks to a girl with a multi-coloured umbrella broke ’the end of the world’ sensation.
Hope you enjoy it.
PS: Taken on my Leica M8.2
A gorgeous image Carla! Lovely.
I love the photo….and I would still love to be there, even with such cold temperatures. It snowed when I was there, but nothing like what your lovely photo shows!
Have a Fabulous Christmas and I hope you find lots of ways to keep warm!

Paris streets are never empty of people. No matter what time it is.
This is a very unusual view of Paris, but equally beautiful.

I"m LOL. I was going to ask how you knew she was a toursist and then I said to myself, "She's not in BLACK"~
Seriously how much did you have to pay the "models" for these last two photos. They couldn't be more perfect Carla. I"m swooning again!

i love how you've captured her in color while the City is so grey..
Love seeing snow in Paris. I was outside today in bare feet. I walked across the Pont Marie every day I was in Paris, so this photo makes me feel as though I'm standing there once again. Happy Holidays, Carla!

Well seen and captured Carla! I wondered how you know it is a 'tourist', but then again, only a tourist would go out in that weather?
Keep warm

Sorry this comment is anonymous; I don't have a blogger account. Anyway, the pictures are beautiful! Do you make a living through photography?
Fabulous!! We are lucky not to have been hit by this snow storm, it looks so lovely but has caused so many problems! Merry Xmas:)

I'm happy to be looking through your snow scenes. So pretty, especially in Place Des Vosges. Thank you!
I really love this photo, such a great ambience to it.
Carla, I adore this image…and makes me wonder what the lone tourist is thinking….
ps thank you for your lovely blog comments.
What a fantastic image! I love that the only people out in the snow were photographers and kids. The beauty of your photographs of the snow in Paris will stay with me for a long time.
I'm delighted that you stopped by and thank you for your thoughtful words. Wishing you a very cozy and joyful holiday. xo – g
