The Weekend in Black and White

At one time I lived about two blocks
from this majestic building—this is the
portico of the Pantheon in Paris.

  5. Such a tactile image, Alexa. I love the composition with regard to the background, too. I know this area a bit, but not as well as yourself. I stayed in Rue Danton during one of my Parisian sojourns. Wonderful location for a flaneur.
