Paris in April, a Leica M6 loaded in B/W films around my neck.
BHV, that is a famous department store, stands for Bazaar de l'Hotel de Ville. Those numerous stores, like Printemps or galeries Lafayette, usually offer artful facades.
France and food...for sure this is not England, heehee.

The Seine near the Eiffel Tower.
illegal street seller. For 1 euro you get a small Tower. As opposed to 8 euros in official shops. These illegal sellers are also a nuisance for visitors, pestering everyone to buy their junk. They reminded me of the Zanzibari punks...Tough they piss me off, I have to admit it is not an easy job: always wary for cops on the prowl and thus ready to flee.
other sellers but not annoying anybody and since the sidewalks are wide here...
the tube on the Seine! Unfortunately, that original service only runs on a small portion of the Seine, they have been rented by the Metropolitan RATP to operate at the same cost with the same tickets. Really lovely, named Vogueo. In French, "voguer" means something like wander on the waters. Convenient, one station is located 200 meters from Karine's appartment.
