Rotten summer (2014!)

Sometimes in July, the weather can be very bad in Paris (and in France in general, except on the Riviera). That is exactly what's happening at the moment... I took this photo last evening while I was walking through the crowd to get closer to the stage this rock concert that took place on the Place de la République. The blur is then totally natural, since I was walking when I pulled the trigger. They expect this rotten weather to continue for at least a week...

  1. Never any fun with rainy summer days. But it is a cool photo.

  2. It would be nice if rain confined itself between midnight and six in the morning, wouldn't it?

    Splendid photo regardless.

  3. I saw that it snowed in the Alps; that is nuts!

  4. I hate to miss a day of Paris Daily Photo, but I've missed a few this week. A bonus for me, because I get to see several wonderful photos at once. Eric, I hope you'll continue taking photographs when PDP is retired.

  7. For once, I don't like this photo :)
    Or more precisely I'd rather say, I just don't like the feeling of haste and hurry, which was close to me this week... So your photo is perfect, this is just me ! And it won't last !
