Chanteuse extraordinaire...



A little teaser today as I got home late last night but I will say that if anyone in Perth is reading this, and I like to think there are, it's a long way to come from Versailles or the US :) but if you are in Perth you really should make an effort to see Exposing Edith (details of where and when).. one word, incroyable! Two of the many shots I took show the highs and lows that was Edith Piaf's life. More tomorrow, happy Thursday, take care and stay safe...

  3. I can imagine this is quite something to see! Perfect expressive captures you caught too. Also, (the word lover in me) adores your use of incroyable!

  4. First was aware of Edith Piaf in my French studies at school many years ago. Loved the Little Sparrow. A gutsy singer. That first image of this woman representing Piaf is stunning.

  9. As long as the voice is ok, no one can go wrong doing a Piaf show. She is just so popular, even though she has been dead a long time.
