The very detail of the 'everyday' at times defies

Boulevard du Montparnasse

Paris in the early evening, cafes doing business for the home-going commuters, the early evening meetings and assignations.

Alvero Castagnet. There is nothing to equal Paris after the sun has gone down.

I saw this horse quite by accident in my Daughters stable. I knew instantly the image I wanted, and waited 10 minuites for the turn of the head. I only got one shot. Quite lucky at 1/25th of a second.
