Picture of the Week #232 "Lonliness in La Coupole" Paris, France 2013

Veering away from my recent run of "Pictures That Make You Smile", I couldn't resist this grab shot that I got on our recent trip to Paris. We were leaving our usual haunt of La Coupole and Ann my beautiful wife ran downstairs to the lady's room. As I stood by the exit I noticed this forlorn looking man sitting there and looking back at me. With a slight smile I raised my camera and when he didn't resist my overture I snapped this image. Once I saw it on my computer I noticed all the portraits of the fabulous artists who frequented this legendary bistro. Here he was sitting beneath the likes of Picasso, Cocteau and Matisse. Who I am sure once sat in these very seats.
