Bateaux à Voiles

Here are the colorful sailboats for hire by 
the pond in the Tuileries Gardens.

I actually took these pictures on a very cold
day in February, but the boat man was doing
a brisk (sorry) business all the same.

  1. This looks like a cheery way to spend a cold day in February!
    & I love how you've cropped the colorful sails in your first photo too.

  2. One of my favorite spots! Indeed, my favorite photo from France was at this very spot! I wonder if it's the same boat man?! These photos are just fabulous!

  7. These boats always bring a smile to «Louis'» bovine mug... This image reminds him of the boats at Jardin du Luxembourg.
