What is it that gives a place an edge? That one aspect, replicated throughout a city, in nooks and crannies, that makes a place memorable? That 'sine qua non'? In my home city of Sydney I posit it to be the beauty of the natural setting.
Here in Paris? I am on a month-long idyll to sus them out. How about window-treatments for starters ... ? Any idea where these little beauties are?

ReplyDeleteBonjour!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful edgy stuff, and I love the way you simply mutate from Sydney to Paris without so much as drawing a blog-breath!
Might see you Sunday, who knows?
Sunshine Coast Daily Photo - Australia
I'd love to live across the street, but not really inside - they'd cut out some of the already tiny amount of light!
ReplyDeleteThese would look great at my place!
ReplyDeleteI suspect they would require a fairly large building, indeed. Is it obvious from the photograph that they are in the roofline?
ReplyDeleteWow! Those are stunning! :)
ReplyDeleteI used to work close to this place in the 7th... I won't say more...
ReplyDeleteThere are so many government departments scattered throughout this area. And smartly dressed government workers. Handsome young men abound ...
ReplyDeleteI love them - real character. Good interpretation of the theme as well. I envy you away from all the crap thats going on here.
ReplyDeleteWOW! How fantastically unique! I love it. Also, I'm glad to see someone other than myself explore other areas outside of their hometown in their city daily photo blog. I did this when I visited my sister in Poland last May, and it was a lot of fun. I look forward to seeing more of your perspective on France.
ReplyDeleteI love them - they are fabulous! Great catch.
ReplyDeleteThey are awesome.
ReplyDeleteSydney - City and Suburbs
Never mind the windows bring on the good looking men.
ReplyDeleteAwesome post Julie, enjoy your month in Paris, will email you soon with my dates, it would be great fun to catch up.
ReplyDeleteLook forward to hearing from you, Mark. Biting-midge from the Sunshine Coast will be here, too.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a bloggers meet in Paree, beaut pics too! Have a pain au chocolat for me.
ReplyDeleteFantastic Julie. Amazing architecture. Enjoy your month in Paris.
ReplyDeleteWhat astounding windows. I like your discussion. The setting of Sydney is mind-blowing. In fact I think of all Australia as being a culture based on the land. Paris something else as you are so beautifully showing us.
ReplyDeleteIt's great you are bringing Paris to us through your viewfinder. I think these windows would deter any Romeos from clambering up the balcony to serenade their Juliet.
ReplyDeleteGosh those things must be huge ... maybe its it the French version of big things to attract tourists,
ReplyDeleteThey are on a very big building, but yes, huge would cover it. The are on th Invalides. Show you in the next post.
ReplyDeleteBeautifulWorkThankYouForSharing:)
ReplyDeleteInvalides?? I have not been. Shame on me. Look what I missed. These are fab.

Great post and great image. Best wishes on your Paris adventure!
ReplyDeleteJulie, I love this view and the fact that the 20 or so windows are all different! I have made many shots in/around Les Invalides... superbe!
