Last week all the parks and gardens were reopened since being on lockdown since March. Once again Parisians were treating their parks like an extended urban backyard. What a difference a week makes; The week before I walked to the almost deserted Place des Vosges and the center park was literally under lockdown, an eerie sight, devoid of human life.
The following week the park was packed with kids playing in the playground, infants and toddlers shoveling sand into their plastic buckets in the sandbox, and adults idling on benches, getting a cool breeze under the awning of plane trees, while slurping ice cream cones or sipping cool drinks.
I shot a series of bench photos in the Palais Royal in 2015 and was inspired to do so again on the Place des Vosges.
I also invited my readers to make up captions for each bench photo.
So I am inviting you again to make up captions for each photo.
Enjoy the challenge and please send the captions to [email protected] before June 15.
I look forward to receiving your fun captions.
