Montmartre is a hill inside Paris, it is also called butte Montmartre. Stairs are on every side of that hill, like streets. Due to the declension, you can be at the first floor on one side of your apartment, and on the opposite side of your apartment, you live at the 3rd floor.Montmartre est une colline dans Paris. Ce quartier est aussi appelé la butte Montmartre. Des escaliers se trouvent sur chaque versant, comme des rues.
A cause de la déclinaison, on peut habiter au 1er étage d'un coté de la rue et au 3 ème sur la rue de l'autre coté de la maison.

Montmartre..it's so associated with romance in my mind. The steps come out really well in b&w.
RépondreSupprimerKeep you fit living up there. Good picture.
RépondreSupprimerI would like to see the view of Cheriton now but the planning regulations should have kept it the same.
very beautiful
RépondreSupprimerI wish you, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
the re abetter city to photograph in black and white no. Paris simply the best. This is a wonderful image and the narrative really epxlained the setting well.
RépondreSupprimerOh Catherine,I love stairways-walkways, window,s and doorways that seem to lead to nowhere the possibilities are endless... this is a good shot, good perspective how is your family?
RépondreSupprimerYou made me want to see more pics of this hill. I like this one, and it sounds very interesting.
RépondreSupprimerYes, how is your family?
Oh Cath, this brings back such memories .. I have, sadly, not been to Paris in almost half a lifetime ... but I hope to do it again someday ... economy stabilizing would help .. anyway, that is a wonderful photo!

Lovely photo, Catherine, though it does remind me that I really do need to get out and walk my country road for a bit. Would love to walk your Montmarte stairways just for a change. I think I could handle a month in Paris just for the fun of it - walking about.
RépondreSupprimerI've never visited Paris, but I hope I will in the future ...
RépondreSupprimerGreetings from Belgium !
The steps appear to be very steep!
RépondreSupprimerI think I would love to take my dogs up these stairs! It would really wear them out and I bet it's beautiful up there.
RépondreSupprimerI love the photo, don't love the idea of having to climb all those stairs with my aging, aching knees.
RépondreSupprimerBeautiful shot of the steps. Love the geometry and crispness of this photo.
RépondreSupprimerTu te rends compte que j'ai habité ce quartier et que cela fait plusieurs années que je ne suis pas allée sur la butte...
RépondreSupprimerDonc je confirme, ma résolution de 2009 : me balader à Montmartre...
Carole, viens quand tu veux. Montmartre est notre quartier de coeur, ma maison la tienne.
RépondreSupprimerNice subject for a black and white photo.
RépondreSupprimerI like the low angle and the geometric lines of the staircase. It's beautiful.
