Perfect match!


Parisian women are so chic that they think of matching their outfits with the window shop they are going to visit during the day!! I am surprised her Dachshund does not have a raincoat the same colour though... By the way, did you know that Dachshund originally come from Germany where they were bred to pursue badgers into their burrows. The standard dachshund stands about 7 to 10 inches (18 to 25 cm) and weighs 16 to 32 pounds (7 to 14.5 kg); the miniature is shorter and weighs no more than 11 pounds (5 kg)...

  2. Je me suis posé la question Anna. Et puis ça réduisait la profondeur de champ, etc. Bref ça ne marchait pas. Donc j'ai laissé la totale !

  3. I love the bright colour in the foreground, you eye is drawn right to it. Was this photo shot near the Madeleine? I think I may have been to the cafe in the background.

  9. This is a true classic. You do have such a good eye Eric. Do you get time to do anything else, other than look for perfect shots and angles? :)

    Did you have to follow her for a long time or was she standing there "asking" to have her photo taken?
