Black and white street scene in Paris with historic buildings and a view of the city skyline.

Leaving Paris

Long flights of steps descend from Montmartre towards the streets below, linking the hilltop district with the surrounding neighbourhoods of Paris.

This view captures a solitary figure carrying a suitcase down the staircase, framed against the urban landscape beyond. The composition creates a sense of movement and departure within one of the city’s most recognisable districts.

Notes

I took this shot of a man carrying a large suitcase down the steps, presumably heading towards the nearby Gare du Nord train station. I therefore titled the shot 'Leaving Paris'.
