Nomadic Vision

Life goes on as usual in the Paris Metro.

I’ve always loved street photography. Henri Cartier-Bresson is one of my all time favorite photographer and he is best known for his street photography of Paris. On a recent trip to Paris, inspired by old Henri, I made an effort to do some street photography myself.

I discovered that Paris is still a fantastic location for street photography. I think what makes it so great is that the old, touristy areas are still popular with the locals and local Parisians go about their day to day work, seemingly unaware of all the tourists.

Of all the European cities we’ve seen, I would recommend Paris for any photographers wanting to work on their street photography.
