Samedi matin, avenue de Paris


Avenue de Paris on Saturday morning, before the snow turned to icy rain.

    I'm sorry, Ciel, but I'm glad I'm not there now. We're getting a blast of arctic air in the next couple of days which will bring our nighttime temps down into the 20s (f)and I hate it...snow and ice would merely aggravate the situation!

    I will admit, however, that your photos are quite attractive and almost make the snow look like fun...the operative word here being "almost."

    By the by...9,000 feet is about 1 3/4 miles high. (5,280 feet being equal to one mile).

    You must be feeling much better and I hope for you a very nice week ahead!

    La premiere photo avec la neige qui tombe et la perspective de la rue est magnifique. La passante sur un cote et le banc de l'autre est tres bien aussi. Je la verrais bien accrochee au mur...

    The top photo makes me thing of a Robert Frost poem that ends the woods are lovely, dark and deep / But I have promises to keep / And miles to go before I sleep / And miles to go before I sleep.

    Metric makes all kinds of sense but miles is a much better word than kilometers.

    These are so beautiful. I think you should use the first on as your "Years Best" photo!

    J'adore cette situation revenir en enfance avec des boules de neige avec des amis.

    Countdown to Christmas! I have always been ambivalent about the snow: I like it for some time but the 'after' is awful!

    I think Bob's right, the perfect photograph to accompany Frost's poem. The bottom one reminds me of Cartier-Bresson. Well done.

    Lovely scenes, Ciel. It is remarkable how many bloggers are talking about snow where they are. But, I have lived in the nortern U.S. for a long time, and my tolerance for cold weather and slippery roads is limited.

    Have a good week.

    What beautiful scenes, Ciel. We have gotten pretty cold here but no snow!

    I like tree-lined avenue.
