Thanks so much for all the lovely birthday wishes yesterday. We spent the day at Aimee's new house transforming her front door from très ordinaire into a warm yellow welcome, suits Aimee's sunny personality perfectly.. then out for dinner in the evening. On Saturday we went to a local bi-monthly farmers market just five minutes from home and were really impressed with the quality and prices of the produce.. while Aimee was buying up big :) I enjoyed the français feel ambiance (franbiance) created by the accordionist. Hope you had or are still having a super weekend, take care and stay safe..
Super portraits, Grace! I especially like the second one.
ReplyDeleteFab portraits, Grace!
ReplyDeleteLove the b&w choice.
Fantastic, Grace!! Love your captures and the b&w!! Perfect! Thanks as always for sharing the fun!!
ReplyDeleteVery French indeed. I remember being serenaded by a fellow like this when I was last in Paris. Glad you had a fun birthday. Happy Monday!
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful B&W portraits !
ReplyDeleteThese are excellent, Grace!
ReplyDeleteSecond pic particularly good.
ReplyDeleteVery intense portrait! Arianna
ReplyDeleteI thought he might have dozed off. But then the music would stop and people would know. Hardly fashionable, but I like accordion music too.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday! I love very much accordion music. My aunt plays it. Wish you a nice new week.
ReplyDeleteHere's wishing you a belated happy birthday. Sounds like you had a great day. The accordionist looks like he is concentrating on his music.
ReplyDeleteI hear the music in your words!

Musicians can be found at our farmer's markets as well. This one looks quite serious about his craft.
ReplyDeleteThe photos are great and definitely need to be in black and white. Belated "Happy Birthday" - sorry I missed it!
ReplyDeleteI did not know that word "fanbiance" , but I like it ! It tells well what it means ! Great shot, very Paris like..
ReplyDeleteThese are absolutely gorgeous. Glad you had a nice birthday celebration.
ReplyDeleteIt feels like Italy to me, Grace!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday. Nice portrait of the "dragspelare".
ReplyDeleteB&W really suits these photos, which - to me - have an old-world flavour.
ReplyDeleteLovely shots and happy belated birthday!
