Hi From Paris. © Copyright 2022 G Dan Mitchell.
Street art on a Paris wall at night.
One thing often leads to another. Recently I looked up a photograph I made in a few years ago. (I’m writing something about that photograph that will appear on my blog soon.) As I contemplated the circumstance of making that photograph I wanted to go back and look at others I made right before and after that one. Once I started it was impossible to stop, and before long I was digging into a body of work that I had not looked at for a while. As I did, I found some forgotten images that I wanted to work on.
This photograph is one of them. We were staying in Montmartre, and on this evening we went out to find something to eat… and then we ended up just walking along the evening streets, taking in the feeling of the place and, of course, making photographs. As in many big cities, there is fascinating street art throughout Paris — and some not-so-fascinating stuff, too. I photographed this eclectic little vignette under the light of street lamps: “HI FROM PARIS!”
