Bike II / Galerie Vivienne, Paris, France

An image of a stairway, in an apartment block, in the Galerie Vivienne, Paris, France. I could have spent hours in here, a wonderful place with a touch of film noir about it, the shadows and light in here were amazing :)

 

The Galerie Vivienne is one of the covered passages of Paris, France, located in the 2nd arrondissement. the Galerie was based on plans drawn up by the architect Francois Jean Delannoy. Inaugurated in 1826 under the name Marchoux, but soon renamed Vivienne, the gallery took advantage of its unique location. It attracted many visitors with its tailor shops, cobblers, wine shop, restaurant, Jousseaume bookstore, draper, confectioner, print-seller and so on.

 

I really liked the 'sit up and beg' bike, thats just missing a wicker basket I think, I thought I'd make it central to the composition, I need to go back to Paris, as I have only scratched the surface, some fantastic place.
