Parisian girl at number 32 and Tintin

Having a cigarette never feels better than it does in Paris. Especially just above Tintin.

I used to read Tintin books.

Then you probably would not have noticed the girl as all of your attention would have been on that Tintin shop beneath her ).

This is such a Parisian scene. Love it.

Oh this is so Paris! I miss Paris.

Tintin! <3

I did notice her first, but then my eyes did a diagonal move to the sign.

[topum.livejournal.com]

I mean if you were there instead of me. You can see only a tiny bit of that shop in that photo, when you are in the street it is dominating the scene (especially for Tintin readers I guess).

[topum.livejournal.com]

I saw the girl first ).

[topum.livejournal.com]

Paris is still so full of awesome Parisian scenes to shoot.

[topum.livejournal.com]

I do too. But a couple of days at a time there is usually enough for me (I want to visit often though).

[found-world.livejournal.com]

Ah, I see! Yes, I would've probably been paying more attention to the store.
Looking at the photo again, I see black streaks on her legs. I wonder if those are from stockings.

[topum.livejournal.com]

I think those are anti-pigeon spikes on the window.

[found-world.livejournal.com]

Peering at them again, I see what you mean. Funny I didn't notice the rest of them. I guess they contrasted more with her.

[diejacobsleiter.livejournal.com]

Ha! That's very good!

[topum.livejournal.com]

Thanks man.

Nice capture. One of these days I'm going to be hanging out on a balcony in Paris.  Except I think I'll forgo the cigarette and have a glass  of French wine instead. 

Also probably won't be texting unless the hotel has WiFi. .the roaming charges in Europe are unreal.

A glass of wine will do. Or a bottle ).

[beautesauvage13.livejournal.com]

Yes A bottle of wine or 2 would be better some cheese.  Sounds like a party.

And that's way more than I could have hoped for these photos to inspire ).

I kinda grew up with TinTin, so I'm happy to see him around.

Sting's "We'll be Together" video, couldn't take my eyes off his sweater.

The text is saying, "Watch out, girl. Some freak below is taking your picture!"

[topum.livejournal.com]

The freak is in your head, man.

[topum.livejournal.com]

Haha, that's a nice sweater.

[gneu.livejournal.com]

You do well getting inside people's heads, you know.

[topum.livejournal.com]

Not better than you getting inside people's phones.
And in your case it is not that difficult, I still remember your tirade on a picture of a couple next to a fountain "that somebody might masturbate over it". Dude, not everyone is you ).

[gneu.livejournal.com]

OK, I must have stepped into the wrong bar. Exactly where was I looking for an argument, here?

[topum.livejournal.com]

Whenever I step into a wrong bar my first thought (and advice to others) is to get the fuck out of there first, man. I can then think how did I get there calmly ).

[gneu.livejournal.com]

So you're asking me to unfriend you then?

[topum.livejournal.com]

Why? I am just telling you that if you feel that you stepped into an argument that you did not want to step in, then I would get out of it first. I actually don't even see an argument here but hey, we all have our own picture of the world.

Having said that, I am OK with anyone friending, unfriedning and refriending me anytime they want as I said in my profile. If I want someone out, I will just unfriend them myself usually instead of asking them. That rrely happens because of arguments though. So you've got all the power, man ).

[gneu.livejournal.com]

I was only expressing sarcasm, because I know you're smart enough to detect that. I sensed hostility from you. Even though unexpected, I still take it seriously. So I'm not going to walk on eggshells and be apologetic, instead I'm just going to walk away. When your sarcasm turns vulgar, I don't expect a resolution to be in the works. I don't read any dubiousness in your comments to others.

[topum.livejournal.com]

Others might not have been calling me a freak in my journal knowing not one fucking thing about me, my photos, how I take them or who the people in them actually are. You also know what this journal is about so if you are uncomfortable with it, and deal with it via sarcasm but do not accept any in return (because that is vulgar) then yes, it is going to be tough. And again you are welcome to stay or go as you want. But you have to be ready to get sarcasm or whatever in return for yours (depending on the mood the other party is in).

[gneu.livejournal.com]

Freak was not to be taken as an insult. Maybe it's a cultural difference in language we have. The reason why I don't know anything about you is because you, like me, intentionally remain incognito. I never ask personal questions of anyone on my flist because I'm not here to really get to know anybody anymore. All that's OK. Your journal is basically a daily picture, and that's why I prefer it. I'm not a big reader, which is why I keep my own entries short and to the point. I'm not uncomfortable with anything except negativity, which I usually let blow off unless I know for sure it's intended.

Thanks, man. No problem then on my side. Sorry if I came back too hard. I am very much OK with all kinds of challenging, etc but do not let calling names to happen even "indirectly" (from my experience this would cause anything to slide into ugly and useless lows).
